For that reason, ten different almond genotypes originated from different countries were subjected to relevant analysis. The results showed that the total oil, protein, and ash levels of the almond samples ranged between 30.84-41.43%, 17.43-22.72%, and 2.90-3.40%, respectively. Additionally, total phenolic content of the samples was in the range of 38.7-101.03 mg GAE/100 g sample. It was revealed that the almond samples were rich in monounsaturated fatty acids, and oleic acid was the major one with levels of 61.22-77.63%. For all samples, potassium, magnesium, and phosphorus were the major minerals, and the highest concentration was for potassium with levels of 6192.08-11,046.05 mg/kg. Volatile profile analysis showed that the toluene, 4-octanone, pinacol, and 2-methylpentanal were the dominant volatile compounds for all almond genotypes. The results revealed that the different almond varieties showed significant differences depending on the origin.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessalmondaroma compoundsfatty acidsmineralsphenolicArticle8610.3390/horticulturae80604882-s2.0-85134586606Q1WOS:000816002000001Q1
