Caryophyllene Dominance

Caryophyllene dominance refers to cannabis cultivars where caryophyllene (beta-caryophyllene) comprises a notably elevated share of the terpene profile, often exceeding 20–30% of total terpenes. This sesquiterpene is commonly associated with spicy, black pepper, and woody aromatic notes. Lineage records frequently report caryophyllene-dominant phenotypes in OG Kush, Sour Diesel, and Haze-family crosses. The trait appears heritable but influenced by growing conditions, harvest timing, and post-harvest handling. Breeders studying this marker often reference terpene chromatography data to track expression across generations.
