Abstract
Five chickpea genotypes were sown in the last week of February 2002 and harvested in the second week of May 2002 at Antalya, Turkey. The highest seed organic acid content was succinic acid, followed by malic, quinic, oxalic and citric acids. The highly pigmented cultivars ICC 6119, ICC 4951 and ICC 4949 recorded high levels of short-chained organic acids (citric, malic and oxalic acids), but did not contain quinic acid. On the other hand, the non-pigmented cultivar Kusmen 999 recorded the highest quinic acid content, but contained low values of the short-chained organic acids. The low-pigmented cultivar ICC 12422 recorded the highest succinic acid content, followed by the highly pigmented cultivars ICC 6119 and ICC 4951.
