When about 20% of the cut gypsophila inflorescences were open, 2-phenylethylalcohol (500μl・l^<-1>) added to the vase solution reduced the emission of methylbutyric acids, which are responsible for their unpleasant odor, to one-third. Benzyl alcohol (500μl・l^<-1>), titanium tetrachloride (19mg・l^<-1>) and abietic acid (30mg・l^<-1>) also decreased the emission of methylbutyric acid to nearly half, while ethanol (500μl・l^<-1>) had no effect. The amount of methylbutyric acids emitted coincided well with the results of a sensory test.
