I Studied Delta (s(+) r(-))Limonene - is Limonene Relative to Pinene Terpologically?

I would like to understand expression of Limonene more deeply. Does s (+) Limonene present more often in indica, or at higher levels in indica than r(-) Limonene? Or is R(-) higher in sativa, or is it lower, or are both just randomly arbitrarily strewn about the profiles? Does indica contain Alpha Limonene or does sativa... at all? Is this what denotes the differences in aroma between indica Limonene and sativa Limonene or is the enantiomers of Delta Limonene lending to this variance?

I am curious because I would like to know if there's a means of furthering understanding of hybridized profiles using Terpological DNA through Limonene differences and it's expressions aromatically. In the same way one can add alpha pinene + beta pinene and hold each against the sum is approximately equivalent within 1 Standard Deviation(approximately 10%) of the lean of sativa to indica, respectively associated; alpha is sativa beta is indica. Is it possible that the Limonene does the opposite in a way of pinene. As Pinene denotes hybridization and isn't easily applicable in pure or more pure strains, is limonene applicable to landrace and less hybrids. Or can it further denote the findings of Pinenes ratio terpologically.

One last note is that the more pure the strain, the less applicable is the pinene ratio formula. However, I have noted a flip flop of this application, meaning indica is alpha and beta is sativa and in these instances the ratio works but backwards. I haven't pinned down the variability that's relative to this flip flop aside from a lack of hybridization, aka more pure genetics aka has less genetics included to create said strain. For example, landrace hybrids, this Pinene ratio absolutely doesn't work, but it almost always works flip flopped with the few landrace hybrids I have had opportunity to include in my research.

This is a very useful part of terpologiccal protocol.

A-Pinene + B-Pinene
= Approximately %Sativa/%Indica
Sativa = Alpha Pinene
indica = Beta Pinene
How does this correlate to Limonene expression. . . terpologically.
