ABSTRACT Steam volatile oils were obtained from Rabbiteye blueberries ( Vaccinium ashei Reade, cv. Tiftblue) in amounts of ca. 25 ppm of the berry and analyzed by capillary gas‐liquid chromatography‐mass spectrometry. Major components identified were ethyl acetate, limonene, hexanol, cis‐2‐hexenol, heptanol, cinerolone, β‐ionone, terpinene‐4‐o1, 2‐undecanone, α‐terpineol, 1‐carveol, nerol and eugenol. Of the 42 compounds identified, 29 have not been previously reported as constituents of blueberry volatiles.
