Nuts are "scored" then micro- waved, roasted or boiled to help remove the leathery shell and papery seed coat, revealing a creamy or gold- en-colored meat. Chestnuts are a healthy, low-fat food ingredient that can be incorporated into a wide range of dishes – from soups to poultry stuffing, pancakes, muf- fins and pastries (using chestnut flour). Historically, demand for chestnuts in the United States has been highest in ethnic markets (European and Asian, for example) but as Americans search for novel and healthy food products, chestnuts are becoming more widely accepted.

California is a major producer, with ‘Chandler’ and ‘Tulare’ among the cultivars more widely grown. ‘Chandler’ produces kernels with extra light color at a higher frequency than other cultivars, gaining preference by growers and consumers. Here we performed a deep comparative proteome analysis of kernel pellicle tissue from these two valued genotypes at three harvest maturities, detecting a total of 4937 J. regia proteins. Late and early maturity stages were compared for each cultivar, revealing many developmental responses common or specific for each cultivar. Top protein biomarkers for each developmental stage were also selected based on larger fold-change differences and lower variance among replicates, including proteins for biosynthesis of lipids and phenols, defense-related proteins and desiccation stress-related proteins.

  • Black Walnuts Matt Ernst1 Introduction the Two Major Varieties of Walnuts Grown for Food in the U.S
    Center for Crop Diversification Crop Profile CCD-CP-128 Black Walnuts Matt Ernst1 Introduction The two major varieties of walnuts grown for food in the U.S. are black walnut (Eastern black walnut, Juglans nigra; and California black walnut, Juglans hindsii); and Persian walnut (Juglans regia), also called Carpathian walnut or English walnut. Eastern black walnut is native to North America and is a valuable timber tree, long harvested for veneer lumber. Black walnuts also have a long history as a food ingredient, and Eastern black walnuts are one of the few wild- harvested commercial food crops in the U.S. Persian walnut trees were introduced in California by Spanish missionaries in the 1700s, and California dominates U.S. commercial Persian walnut production. This profile focuses on Eastern black walnut for nut production. Persian walnuts are not recommended for surrounding states for wholesaling to hulling stations. commercial production in Kentucky, where Persian Black walnut nutmeats are used in baking, ice cream, walnut is limited by cold temperatures, winter injury candies and other food preparations.

The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events.

  • 1 Walnut Timeline
    Walnut Timeline Written by Nicole Mosz, HIB/BEAD Last updated May 30, 2002 Introduction This timeline has been created to give a general overview of crop production, worker activities, pesticide use, and key pests in walnuts. The timeline is intended to describe the activities and their relationships to pesticide applications, which take place in the orchard throughout the year. This information will be used in worker risk assessments and in the assessment of pesticide benefits. The timing of events described may vary due to such factors as geography, climate, and weather. Pesticide use information is current as of the last update. Table 2 is a timeline of crop events, which have been divided into three sections to show the duration of crop stages, the timing of worker activities, and pest activity periods with typical pesticide application timings. Please refer to Table 2 to view the relationship between the various crop events that take place in the orchard. Crop Production The United States produces 38% of the world’s walnuts, production second only to China. Ninety-nine percent of the United States walnut production occurs in California. In 1999, California produced 283,000 tons of walnuts on 191,000 bearing acres with a value of about $251 million (Crop Profile for Walnuts in CA, 1998; USDA-NASS, 2001). The majority of U.S. walnuts, Juglans regia, are grown in the San Joaquin and Sacramento valleys of California. The Central Coast and other areas of California also produce walnuts. Typical orchard sizes range from 20 to 40 acres. In a mature orchard, trees are spaced from 40 x 40 feet, with 27 trees per acre, to 28 x 28 feet, with 56 trees per acre.

The selections from these trees gave rise to the so-called Santa Barbara soft-shells, such as Placentia Origin of the Northern CA Walnut Industry In 1871, Felix Gillet, a nurseryman in Nevada City, California, began importing scion wood and nursery stock from France. He is credited with introducing the French cultivars Franquette, Mayette, and others to California. Early California Varieties As a result of the introductions by Sexton and Gillet, California walnut growers found superior open-pollinated seedlings that led to the cultivars Eureka, Placentia, Concord, Payne, Hartley and others.
