Geographic variation in the flavour volatiles of Alphonso mango

► Volatiles studied in ripening fruits of Alphonso mango from three locations in India. ► Ripe fruits from Dapoli had relatively higher amount of mono- and sesquiterpenes. ► Ripe fruits from Deogad had higher amount of lactones compared to two other regions. ► No such geographic variation in terms of unripe fruit volatiles was observed. ► This variation could be because of variable abiotic conditions among these locations.
