Myrcene Myrcene Profiles
Myrcene is one of the most abundant terpenes in cannabis, often accounting for 20–65% of a plant's terpene profile in high-myrcene strains. This monoterpene is commonly associated with earthy, herbal, and sometimes fruity or clove-like aromatics. Myrcene also appears widely in hops, bay leaves, thyme, and mango, contributing to cross-botanical aroma similarities. In cannabis breeding, myrcene-dominant profiles have been documented across diverse strain families—from landrace Indica types to modern hybrids. Breeders tracking myrcene levels use gas chromatography and sensory evaluation to maintain or enhance this trait across generations.

Myrcene-rich cultivars are selected by breeders seeking stable, pronounced herbal and earthy sensory profiles. High myrcene content is often correlated with specific growth patterns and terpene-stability traits that breeders monitor through controlled crosses.
