Myrcene Rich Lineages
Myrcene-rich lineages represent cannabis genetics selected or bred for elevated myrcene terpene profiles. Myrcene is the most abundant terpene in many cannabis varieties and is commonly associated with earthy, herbal, and sometimes fruity aromatic notes. Breeders working in this category often trace myrcene prominence through parent strains like Skunk #1, Northern Lights, and various landrace-derived cultivars. Selection for high myrcene content occurs through phenotypic screening and controlled crossing of myrcene-dominant parents. These lineages are significant in breeding programs focused on aroma development and terpene diversity rather than cannabinoid ratios alone.

Myrcene-rich parents are used in crossing programs to establish consistent terpene baselines and to explore how myrcene interacts with other terpenes in hybrid offspring. Understanding myrcene dominance helps breeders predict aroma profiles and plan hybridization strategies for cultivar development.
