title: Diversity in cyclic sesquiterpene production by Gossypium hirsutum.
abstract: Major sesquiterpene components of oil of Texas Race Stock 810 of Gossypium hirsutum were alpha- and beta-selinene. This is the seventh cyclic terpene type found to date in this genus. Both alpha- and beta-selinene, along with aromadendrene, were found but only as minor components of extracts of several domestic cultivars of G. hirsutum.
