Myrcene Dominant Expression
Myrcene-dominant expression describes cannabis phenotypes where myrcene comprises a notably higher percentage of the terpene profile than other volatile compounds. This terpene is one of the most abundant in cannabis and is commonly associated with earthy, herbal, and sometimes fruity aromatic notes. Lineage records frequently report myrcene dominance in indica-leaning and hybrid cultivars, though expression varies based on cultivation conditions, harvest timing, and genetic background. The presence of myrcene-dominant chemotypes is often linked to specific parent strains and breeding lines that consistently produce this terpene ratio across generations.

Breeders working in this category select for myrcene-dominant phenotypes to stabilize particular aromatic profiles and terpene ratios in commercial and research lines. Understanding myrcene expression helps predict offspring aroma characteristics and supports development of consistent cultivar standards.
