The chemical composition of spontaneous volatile emission from Rubus ulmifolius flowers and fruits during different stages of development was evaluated by HS ‐ SPME ‐ GC / MS . In total, 155 chemical compounds were identified accounting 84.6 – 99.4% of whole aroma profile of flowers samples and 92.4 – 96.6% for fruit samples. The main constituents were α ‐copaene, β ‐caryophyllene, germacrene D, ( E , E )‐ α ‐farnesene, 1,7‐octadien‐3‐one,2‐methyl‐6‐methylene, tridecane, ( E )‐2‐hexenol acetate, ( E )‐3‐hexenol acetate and cyperene. The results give a chemotaxonomic contribution to the characterization of the VOC s emitted from flowers and fruits during their ontogenic development.
