Myrcene Dominant Phenotypes
Myrcene-dominant phenotypes represent cannabis plants where myrcene is the primary terpene by concentration, typically comprising 30–60% of the total terpene profile. This monoterpene is commonly associated with earthy, herbal, and sometimes fruity or clove-like aromatic notes. Myrcene-dominant plants are frequently observed in Indica-leaning lineages and cannabis strains descended from traditional hash-plant genetics. Breeders working in this category often note that myrcene expression correlates with plant structure, cannabinoid ratios, and cultivation environment. Understanding myrcene dominance is valuable for genetic documentation, breeding selection, and lineage preservation work.

Breeders track myrcene-dominant phenotypes as markers for Indica heritage and for predictable terpene expression across generations. Selecting for or against myrcene dominance allows breeders to stabilize aroma profiles and maintain consistency in backcrossing programs.
