Type: article
Abstract: The leaf essential oils of Juniperus grandis were examined from throughout its range.The oil of the Yolla Bolly Mtns.putative J. grandis population was found to be most similar to J. occidentalis.The disjunct San Bernardino Mtns., J. grandis population was found to be quite differentiated from J. grandis populations in the high Sierras of California.The oils from several populations of J. occidentalis and J. osteosperma, as well as the oils of J. californica (chemotypes A and B), are compared with J. grandis.The compositions of leaf essential oils of J. grandis, J. occidentalis and J. osteosperma are presented in detail.
