Abstract:

To identify the composition of floral volatile components and characteristic aromas of Iris × barbata,the flower volatile compounds of 16 bearded iris cultivars in full bloom were analyzed using gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry(GC-IMS)A total of 55 volatile compounds were identified,including 21 fatty acid derivatives,17 terpenoids,3 benzenoids/phenylpropanoids,1 miscellaneous cyclic compound and 13 unidentified compounds. Terpenoids dominated all 16 bearded iris cultivars,followed by fatty acid derivatives. The composition of volatile compounds varied among the cultivars. Principal component analysis(PCA)indicated that α-pinene,linalool,β-pinene,limonene,myrcene,methyl 2-methylbutyrate,2-methylbutanol,methyl isovalerate,hexanol,and 3-methyl-2-butenal were the major volatile compounds in bearded iris. Analysis of relative odor activity values(ROAV)showed that methyl 2-methylbutyrate,2-octanone,myrcene and α-pinene were the main aromacontributors to the fruity and spicy aromas of the 16 bearded iris cultivars,and linalool contributed to the floral aroma of some varieties.

Key words: Iris × barbata, GC-IMS, volatile components, floral aroma
