Limonene Terpene Class
Limonene is a monoterpene commonly found across citrus-forward cannabis cultivars and breeding lines. This volatile compound is frequently associated with lemon, lime, and grapefruit aromatics in cannabis flower. Limonene represents one of the most prevalent terpenes in plant biology broadly, appearing in numerous essential oils and cultivated crops. In cannabis breeding records, strains carrying limonene-dominant profiles often trace back to citrus-leaning parent material or intentional terpene selection work. Breeders working in this category typically preserve and stabilize limonene expression across generations by selecting for aromatic phenotypes.

Breeders pursuing citrus-forward sensory profiles commonly select parent plants showing strong limonene expression. Limonene stability in F2 and F3 generations often requires phenotypic selection pressure, as terpene ratios can shift under different cultivation conditions.
