Date : 12/21/2006 Time : 6:55:43 PM The butternut, Juglans cinerea (family Juglandaceae, orderJuglandales), is a large tree that reaches a height of 30 m (100 ft); it has gray bark and 11-19 oblong and pointed leaflets.
It is one of the hardiest northern NUTtrees but is frequently short-lived because of its susceptibility to fungal and virus bunch diseases.
Fruits are 5-10 cm (2-4 in) in length with four distinct, irregular ribs, and a sticky pubescent husk surrounding a thick shell containing a high-quality kernel.

In the older Cronquist system, these plants were split into three different orders, placed among the Hamamelidae.
The Casuarinales comprised the single family Casuarinaceae, the Juglandales comprised the Juglandaceae and Rhoipteleaceae, and the Myricales comprised the remaining forms (plus Belanops).
The change is due to studies suggesting that the Myricales, so defined, are paraphyletic to the other two groups.
They suggest the families should be divided into two orders, the Fagales and a second based on Nothofagus that is not yet published (although the name was inappropriately allowed to be used in their articles by the editors of the journal).
I prefer to retain the Nothofagaceae in the Juglandales believing the call for a new order is a product of the cladogram rather than a morphologically, independently evolved and distinct unit.
As noted previously, the disposition of the Juglandanae in the Hamamelididae is done with some trepidation knowing full well that the taxon may be better placed in the Dilleniidae.
Viele Juglandales haben unpaarig gefiederte, aromatisch duftende Blätter.
Zudem fanden F. PETERSON und D. (1978, 1979), daß es eine serologische Verwandtschaft zwischen Proteinen der Juglandales und denen vieler anderer Hamamelididae gibt; dagegen aber keine Gemeinsamkeiten zu Rhus und Toxicodendron, zwei Gattungen aus der Familie der Anacardiaceae festzustellen sind.
In deren Nähe müßte man die Juglandales stellen, wenn man der Blattmorphologie einen hohen Stellenwert einräumen möchte.
Place the following into a big bowl: chopped Romaine lettuce, chopped spinach, chopped or grated yellow squash, chopped red bell pepper, grated raw sweet potato,cup of chopped raw broccoli (better still,cup of broccoli sprouts if available), cooked long-grain brown rice with added chestnuts.
