Relative levels of linalool, a selection of other terpenes and methyl salicylate in extracts of petioles and stems before and after removal of trichomes compared to total leaf and root extracts. Equal amounts of the different tissues were used (freshweight, 0.5 g), and trichome material was corrected for freshweight of the original petiole or stem.
