Linalool Terpene
Linalool is a monoterpene commonly found across cannabis cultivars, often co-occurring with limonene and myrcene in floral-forward phenotypes. Chemically, it is a C₁₀H₁₈O alcohol present in many aromatic plants, including lavender and cannabis. In breeding contexts, linalool-dominant chemotypes are frequently selected when developing cultivars with pronounced floral or herbal aromatic profiles. Lineage records show linalool expression varies significantly across Sativa, Indica, and hybrid families, with some landrace strains historically associated with higher ratios. Preservation of linalool-rich phenotypes requires attention to curing, storage temperature, and humidity, as volatile terpenes degrade under heat and oxidative stress.

Breeders working in aromatic phenotype development often select for linalool-rich plants to establish distinctive floral terpene signatures. Stability of linalool expression across generations is a documented consideration in cultivar stabilization programs.
