Breeding Cannabis for Unique Smells with Twinkle Paryani
The science of breeding cannabis for new dank smells and why some cannabis smells like cheese!
Riley sits down for the second time with reserach scientist Twinkle Paryani from Abstrax Tech.
Twinkle recently wrote a paper titled "Nonterpenoid Chemical Diversity of Cannabis Phenotypes Predicts Differentiated Aroma Characteristics"
and can be found (open-access) at https://pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.1021/acsomega.4c03225
This paper dives into the chemistry of smell, and when cannabis breeders are breeding for unique aroma, how they should be evaluating the final product. We often attribute the smell of cannabis to the terpene profile, but there is a lot more going on than just terpenes that give this plant it's unique complex aroma.
