  Juniperus description
Genetic monophyly has yet to be conclusively established for Juniperus and Sabina; should they prove not to be monophyletic with respect to allied Cupressaceae genera (i.e., if fleshy cones have evolved independently in two or more ancestral taxa), acceptance of Sabina at generic rank may become necessary.
Juniperus (several distinct characters shared), and of obvious monophyletic origin with it; future generic recognition under Arceuthos is highly unlikely.
Because the genus is widely distributed in semiarid regions (it grows particularly well on calcareous soils) and some are not particularly palatable to domestic goats, it often affords the only tree of size on the landscape, thus providing an important source of wood for construction, fuel and other domestic uses.
