aUnidentified compounds are not listed. bRetention index I on a DB-WAX Ultra Inert column. cRetention index data from literature. dCompound identification is based on matching mass spectrum to a library spectrum (ms, match factor and reverse match factor given in brackets, identical mass spectra would produce a match factor of 1000), identical or closely matching retention index (ri) and comparison to a commercially available standard compound (std). eVerification of the found sesquiterpene hydrocarbons was carried out by in vivo labeling with [5,5-2H2]-1-deoxy-ᴅ-xylulose (d2-DOX) and [6,6,6-2H3]-(±)-mevalonolactone (d3-MVL) as stable isotope-labeled precursors. fThe compound could not be detected in d2-DOX feeding experiments or the mass spectra could not be evaluated. gRetention index data on a WAX column were not available. hThe compound could not be detected in d3-MVL feeding experiments or the mass spectra could not be evaluated.
