Project description:Grape volatiles include a great number of compounds, among which monoterpenes, alcohols,esters and carbonyls were found.Grape may be divided into aromatic and non-aromatic varieties. ‘Shine Muscat’ belongs to the aromatic cultivar. The most abundant free compounds detected in Muscat grape were linalool, geraniol, citronellol, nerol. Grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) is an economically important and widely cultivated fruit crop. Grape quality is important for its market value and is largely decided by its taste and aroma.Gas-chromatograph mass-spectrometry (GC-MS) was performed to observe changes of the volatile compounds.
