What fallen leaf litter releases
The litter of five deciduous tree species released more than 70 volatile organic compounds, a mixture very different from the essential oils distilled from autumn leaves collected on the trees; the authors suggest most come from the microorganisms decomposing the litter.
A qualitative analysis of litter emissions; the microbial origin is the authors' suggestion, and the study does not describe smell.
The statement the claim rests on was found word for word in the abstract fetched from the named service, and an editor read the full abstract against every part of the claim. Abstract from Europe PMC (ebi.ac.uk/europepmc).
