Abstract:

To detect the floral aroma components of 6 martagon hybrids varieties, SPME/GC-MS technology was used to analyze and identify the volatile components in their flowers. 26 aroma components were detected in the 6 martagon hybrids varieties, including 12 monoterpenes, 5 fatty acid derivatives, 3 alkanes, 3 benzenoids/phenylpropanoids, and 3 heterocycles compounds. ‘Arabian Knight’, ‘Claude Shride’, ‘Peppard Gold’, ‘Alberta Morning’, ‘Pink Morning’, and ‘Snowy Morning’ had 15, 19, 22, 19, 23, and 20 aroma components, respectively. Among them, the main aroma components of ‘Arabian Knight’ and ‘Peppard Gold’ were linalool and eucalyptol; the main aroma components of ‘Claude Shride’ were linalool, nonanal, and 4-terpineol; the main aroma components of ‘Alberta Morning’ were α-thujene and linalool; the main aroma components of ‘Pink Morning’ were linalool, benzaldehyde, and α-thujene; and the main aroma component of ‘Snowy Morning’ was eucalyptol.
