Figure 3

Canonical analysis of principal coordinates based on top 15 VOCs ranked by the mean decrease in classification accuracy: a CAP model was produced from apple samples of four cultivars. The plot uses the first two linear discriminants (LD); each ellipses represents the 95% confidence interval. Percentage of correct classification of 100% (, nā€‰=ā€‰4). LD1 vs. LD2 accounted for 100% of the total variation within data.
