Myrcene Aroma Marker
Myrcene aroma marker refers to cannabis plants exhibiting volatile terpene profiles where myrcene is a dominant or readily detectable component. This classification is based on gas chromatography analysis and sensory evaluation rather than subjective effect claims. Myrcene is one of the most abundant terpenes in cannabis and cannabis-adjacent plants like hops and mangoes. Lineage records frequently report myrcene dominance in varieties descended from certain Indica and hybrid ancestry lines. The marker serves as a chemical fingerprint for breeder selection and chemotaxonomic categorization, helping distinguish genetic populations within breeding programs.

Breeders working in terpene-targeted selection often use myrcene aroma marker data to identify and stabilize genetic lines with consistent volatile profiles across generations. This classification supports chemotype documentation in breeding registries and helps maintain phenotypic consistency in preservation and seed production.
