We demonstrated the evaluation of the family based on the analysis of essential oils and pungent components in ginger rhizomes produced in Kochi using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and a reversed-phase separation mode and an electrospray ionization mode of the liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS). As a result of the analysis of them in our many kinds of gingers, SKT-5 (named by us) was evaluated as a new family of gingers, Zingiber offcinale Roscoe.
