Abstract :In this study, some growth parameters, protein content and fatty acids properties of ten different sesame populations cultivated in Southeastern Anatolia were investigated. Protein and oil contents of the populations varied between 19.60-24.85 % and 30.16-40.36 %, respectively. Oleic acid insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(43.42-45.05 %);, linoleic acid insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(38.12-39.80 %);, palmitic acid insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(9.33-9.83 %); and stearic acid insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(5.33 to 5.63 %); were the predominant compounds of the seed oil. Cultivated populations exhibited significant differences in relation to seed yield, seed number per capsule, and 1000-seed weight. Furthermore, seed yield was significantly predicted by oil content and plant height according to the results of multiple linear regression analysis.
