Abstract
Volatile constituents of embryogenic and nonembryogenic sweet orange ( Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck) callus cultures were analyzed by gas chro matography-mass spectrometry to determine if sweet orange flavor essen ces were produced. Fifteen compounds were identified from the embryoge nic callus methylene chloride extracts, with 10 previously reported as volatile constituents of orange juice or peel essential oil, 3 are kn own fermentation products, 2 have no reported aroma, and 2 were unknow n. No volatile compounds were detected from nonembryogenic callus meth ylene chloride extracts.
