%X The volatile composition of different parts (whole fruit, peel and flesh) of a rare wild red apple named ¡°Mela Rossa Val Metauro¡± was established by SPME (Solid Phase Micro-Extraction) sampling, followed by GC-MS analysis. The most prominent constituent in all the three parts was the sesquiterpene (E,E)-¦Á-farnesene. The presence of the ester ethyl hexanoate particularly in the flesh (39.8%) gives a special exotic flavor to the fruit.
