Linalool Primary Dominance
Linalool Primary Dominance refers to cannabis genetics where linalool is the most abundant terpene in the volatile profile. Linalool is a C10 monoterpene commonly found in lavender, mint, and floral plant families. In breeding programs, strains exhibiting linalool dominance often trace back to specific lineages—including certain Kush, Haze, and Afghani-derived crosses—where this terpene expression has been selectively maintained across generations. The trait is inherited polygentially and influenced by environmental factors including temperature, light spectrum, and harvest timing. Breeders working with linalool-dominant lines use phytochemical testing to identify and stabilize this profile in F2 and F3 generations.

Linalool dominance serves as a chemotype marker for breeders developing consistent aromatic profiles. Stable linalool-primary genetics are valued in breeding programs focused on predictable secondary metabolite expression and sensory standardization.
