Encore marginale au Québec, la culture des noix [...] détient pourtant un beau potentiel. Plusieurs espèces d'arbres à noix — le noyer noir, certains noisetiers et le caryer ovale, pour n'en nommer que quelques-unes — résistent d'ailleurs très bien à nos hivers rigoureux, en plus de produire des noix savoureuses, précieuses protéines végétales dont les arômes n'ont rien à voir avec les produits importés qu'on trouve habituellement en supermarché. 4, record 1, French, - nuciculture

The kola tree grows wild in West Africa and is cultivated in tropical South America and in the West Indies. The fruit is a yellowish-brown, woody pod that contains several large, white or red nuts ... Kola nuts contain more caffeine than coffee berries and are taken as a stimulant to prevent fatigue. They also act as a tonic agent for the heart and are sometimes useful in relieving pains of neuralgia and headache. 2, record 5, English, - cola%20nut%20tree

Habitat : Afrique occidentale tropicale. [...] arbre de 15 à 20 m [...] produit des fruits [...] qui rappellent les cabosses du cacaoyer. [On extrait] des graines charnues, les noix de kola. Elles sont amères, astringentes, riches en composés polyphéloniques et en caféine. Les indigènes en mâchent pour stimuler leurs muscles et leurs nerfs, la noix de kola jouant ici un rôle semblable à celui de la coca dans les Andes. Importée en Europe à la fin du XVe siècle, elle n'a été utilisée en thérapeutique qu'à partir de la fin du XIXe siècle. 4, record 5, French, - kolatier
