Abstract

In this study; the saturated and unsaturated fatty acid composition of 11 different peanut cultivars, Runner (Georgia Green) Virginia (NC-7, Masal, Halisbey, Wilson, Com, Brantley, Duzici-1) Spanish (Florispan, Nigeria-1), widely grown in the eastern Mediterranean Transition Zone were determined. The research was carried out for two years (2020 to 2021) under second crop season conditions in the trial areas of the Oil Seeds Research Institute. The experiment was set up in a randomized block design with 3 replications. In the research, palmitic acid, stearic acid, arachidonic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, oleic/linoleic ratio, iodin value, behenic acid, arachidic acid properties were investigated. The highest oleic acid ratio was obtained from Masal (79.71%), the highest palmitic acid from florispan (11.06%), and the highest linoleic acid (34.08%) from florispan. The behenic acid ratio was found between 2.51% (Wilson) and 3.14% (Georgia Green).
