“…The earliest study of blueberry volatiles was performed in 1970 and reported only four VOCs in fruit of the lowbush blueberry V. angustifolium (Table ). Nearly 20 years later, another study reported 23 distinct volatile compounds in ripe fruits of this species . Most recently, a study published in 2012 listed 20 compounds that were found in V. angustifolium berries .…”

“…Developments have been more promising in the chemical analysis aspect of fruit aroma research. While early studies on fruit VOCs were often only able to detect between 10 and 30 compounds, , modern identification and quantitation techniques have enabled researchers to identify greater numbers of distinct VOCs from given fruits than previously reported …”

Variations in volatile organic compound (VOC) type and content can result in noticeable differences in fruit aroma. The genus Vaccinium encompasses over 500 distinct species of berry-producing plants, several of which are important to commercial horticulture. Understanding which VOCs are produced by different members of this genus could greatly aid efforts to improve the aroma of multiple Vaccinium crops by breeding for desirable fruit volatiles. This review summarizes the published research available on this topic, examining prior work done to characterize the volatile profiles of blueberries, cranberries, bilberries, lingonberries, whortleberries, and other Vaccinium berries. In addition, analytical methodologies used to obtain Vaccinium berry volatile profiles are discussed. Possible future directions for Vaccinium berry volatile research are also examined.

“…Despite the strong effect of ripening, the blueberry aroma profiling also varies due to the broad genetic differences among the Vaccinium species. For instance lowbush blueberry ( V. angustifolium L.), bilberry ( V. myrtillus L.), and other wild species are mostly characterized by a high production of esters (i.e., methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, or methyl butanoate) while highbush ( V. corymbosum L.) and rabbiteye blueberry ( V. virgatum Aiton) profiles are mostly characterized by a high concentration of “green compounds” such as (E)-2-hexenal, hexanal, and (Z)-3-hexenol and terpene alcohols such as linalool, nerol, and geraniol (von Sydow and Anjou, 1969 ; von Sydow et al, 1970 ; Hall et al, 1979 ; Horvat et al, 1983 , 1996 ).…”

Blueberry (Vaccinium spp.) fruit consumption has increased over the last 5 years, becoming the second most important soft fruit species after strawberry. Despite the possible economic and sensory impact, the blueberry volatile organic compound (VOC) composition has been poorly investigated. Thus, the great impact of the aroma on fruit marketability stimulates the need to step forward in the understanding of this quality trait. Beside the strong effect of ripening, blueberry aroma profile also varies due to the broad genetic differences among Vaccinium species that have been differently introgressed in modern commercial cultivars through breeding activity. In the present study, divided into two different activities, the complexity of blueberry aroma was explored by an exhaustive untargeted VOC analysis, performed by two complementary methods: SPME-GC-MS (solid phase microextraction- gas chromatography-mass spectrometry) and PTR-ToF-MS (proton transfer reaction-time of flight-mass spectrometry). The first experiment was aimed at determining the VOC modifications during blueberry ripening for five commercially representative cultivars (“Biloxi,” “Brigitta Blue,” “Centurion,” “Chandler,” and “Ozark Blue”) harvested at four ripening stages (green, pink, ripe, and over-ripe) to outline VOCs dynamic during fruit development. The objective of the second experiment was to confirm the analytical capability of PTR-ToF-MS to profile blueberry genotypes and to identify the most characterizing VOCs. In this case, 11 accessions belonging to different Vaccinium species were employed: V. corymbosum L. (“Brigitta,” “Chandler,” “Liberty,” and “Ozark Blue”), V. virgatum Aiton (“Centurion,” “Powder Blue,” and “Sky Blue”), V. myrtillus L. (three wild genotypes of different mountain locations), and one accession of V. cylindraceum Smith. This comprehensive characterization of blueberry aroma allowed the identification of a wide pull of VOCs, for the most aldehydes, alcohols, terpenoids, and esters that can be used as putative biomarkers to rapidly evaluate the blueberry aroma variations related to ripening and/or senescence as well as to genetic background differences. Moreover, the obtained results demonstrated the complementarity between chromatographic and direct-injection mass spectrometric techniques to study the blueberry aroma.

“…In an early study utilizing only gas chromatography, it was reported that acetaldehyde, ethylene, ethanol, ethyl acetate, and methyl acetate occur as volatiles of ripening V. angustifolium (Hall et al, 1970). There are recent reports on the volatiles of the related high-bush blueberry Vaccinium corymbosum (Hirvi and Honkanen, 1983; Parliment, and Kolor, 1975), rabbiteye blueberry, Vaccinium ashei (Horvat and Senter, 1985), bilberry, Vaccinium myrtillus (Hirvi and Honkanen, 1983), and the bog blueberry, Vaccinium uliqinosum (Hirvi and Honkanen, 1983).…”
