Abstract
The volatile components of the floral fragrances from three sweet pea culti vars have been determined using polymer entrainment and solvent elution, co mbined with gas-chromatography-mass spectrometry. A total of 48 compounds w ere detected in quantifiable amounts, 41 of which were common to all three cultivars. The most abundant compounds were consistently found to be (E)-be ta-ocimene and linalool. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved .
