Linalool
Linalool is a monoterpene commonly detected in cannabis cultivars, though it typically appears in lower concentrations compared to myrcene or limonene. This floral, lavender-like compound is also found in many plants including lavender, coriander, and some citrus varieties. Lineage records frequently report linalool presence in Kush-derived lines and certain Indica-dominant cultivars, though individual plant expression varies significantly. Breeders tracking this terpene often note it co-occurs with other monoterpenes in complex aromatic profiles. The compound's stability during storage and extraction processes makes it relevant to seed preservation discussions among breeding programs.
