The evolution of major cannabinoids and terpenes during the growth of Cannabis sativa plants was studied. [] Key Method Fifty clones of each mother plant were grown indoors under controlled conditions. Every week, three plants from each variety were cut and dried, and the leaves and flowers were analyzed separately. Eight major cannabinoids were analyzed via HPLC-DAD, and 28 terpenes were quantified using GC-FID and verified via GC-MS. The chemotypes of the plants, as defined by the tetrahydrocannabinolic…
New Methods for the Comprehensive Analysis of Bioactive Compounds in Cannabis sativa L. (hemp)
TLDR
The study on Cannabis volatile compounds was performed by developing a new method based on headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with GC-MS and GC-FID, which was found to be the most abundant cannabinoids in the hemp samples analysed, while β-myrcene and β-caryophyllene were the major terpenes.
Terpene synthases from Cannabis sativa
TLDR
Functional characterization identified mono- and sesqui-TPS, whose products collectively comprise most of the terpenes of ‘Finola’ resin, including major compounds such as β-myrcene, (E)-β-ocimene, (-)-limonene, (+)-α-pinene, β-caryophyllene, and α-humulene.
(-)-trans-Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabiphorol Content of Cannabis sativa Inflorescence from Various Chemotypes.
TLDR
The preliminary results obtained indicate Δ9-THCP (1) may have a higher degree of prevalence in C. sativa inflorescence than previously estimated.
Identification of Chemotypic Markers in Three Chemotype Categories of Cannabis Using Secondary Metabolites Profiled in Inflorescences, Leaves, Stem Bark, and Roots
TLDR
This study investigated the utility of the full spectrum of secondary metabolites in different plant parts in three cannabis chemotypes (THC dominant, intermediate, and CBD dominant) for chemotaxonomic discrimination and provides a comprehensive profile of bioactive compounds in three chemotypes for medical purposes.
Determination of Acid and Neutral Cannabinoids in Extracts of Different Strains of Cannabis sativa Using GC-FID.
TLDR
A GC-FID method has been developed and validated for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of acid and neutral cannabinoids in C. sativa extracts and indicated a linear relationship between the concentration and peak area ratio with R2 > 0.999 for all 10 cannabinoids.
Terpenoids and Phytocannabinoids Co-Produced in Cannabis Sativa Strains Show Specific Interaction for Cell Cytotoxic Activity
TLDR
It is found that in “ high THC” or “high CBD” strains, phytocannabinoids are produced alongside certain sets of terpenoids, and the partial specificity in interaction may have influenced the cultivation of cannabis and may have implications for therapeutic treatments.
Metabolomic Analysis of Cannabinoid and Essential Oil Profiles in Different Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) Phenotypes
TLDR
Principal component analysis (PCA) and analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed that according to the components of essential oil, FS and TS plants were more uniform than CS plants, where there were great differences between CI and CII phenotypes.
The evolving science of phytocannabinoids
TLDR
This Review examines phytocannabinoids in terms of their mode of action, biosynthesis, and various total syntheses and derivatizations, and describes the policy issues surrounding the possession, use and control of phytcannabinoids.
Developmental Plasticity of the Major Alkyl Cannabinoid Chemotypes in a Diverse Cannabis Genetic Resource Collection
TLDR
The results suggest that more extensive chemical and genetic characterization of the Cannabis genepool could facilitate the metabolic engineering of alkyl cannabinoid chemotypes, indicating a low level of plasticity in cannabinoid composition.

Time course of cannabinoid accumulation and chemotype development during the growth of Cannabis sativa L
TLDR
It was confirmed that callus cultures of Cannabis were not able to produce detectable amounts of any cannabinoids, irrespective of the type and amount of cannabinoids in the mother plants.
Evolution of the Content of THC and Other Major Cannabinoids in Drug‐Type Cannabis Cuttings and Seedlings During Growth of Plants *
TLDR
It is not necessary to wait for plants’ flowering to identify drug‐type cannabis generally cultivated in Europe, through analysis of eight major cannabinoids content during growth.
The inheritance of chemical phenotype in Cannabis sativa L.
TLDR
Four crosses were made between inbred Cannabis sativa plants with pure cannabidiol (CBD) and pure Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) chemotypes, and it is suggested that codominance is due to the codification by the two alleles for different isoforms of the same synthase, having different specificity for the conversion of the common precursor cannabigerol into CBD or THC.
The inheritance of chemical phenotype in Cannabis sativa L. (II): Cannabigerol predominant plants
TLDR
B0 is considered as a member of the BD allelic series encoding a CBD synthase isoform with greatly weakened substrate affinity and/or catalytic capacity, and is plausible that this B0 is a mutation of normally functional BD.
Qualitative and Quantitative Aspects of the Inheritance of Chemical Phenotype in Cannabis
TLDR
A segregation analysis of the different F2 progenies obtained showed that chemotype, estimated as CBD/THC ratio, behaves as a qualitative character, and a model for a single locus B, with two co-dominant alleles, B D and B T is described.
Taming THC: potential cannabis synergy and phytocannabinoid‐terpenoid entourage effects
TLDR
Particular focus will be placed on phytocannabinoid‐terpenoid interactions that could produce synergy with respect to treatment of pain, inflammation, depression, anxiety, addiction, epilepsy, cancer, fungal and bacterial infections (including methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus).
The Gene Controlling Marijuana Psychoactivity
TLDR
It is concluded that the FAD binding residue is His-114 and that the THCA synthase reaction is FAD-dependent, the first report on molecular characterization of an enzyme specific to cannabinoid biosynthesis.
