Özet: This Research was conducted at the University of Ondokuz Mayıs, Faculty of Agriculture, Field Crops Department in 2017-2018. In the research; 28 safflower genotypes and 2 registered safflower varieties (Balcı and Dinçer) were used in 20 different countries selected from the World Safflower Gene Collection. The result of the research is that the oil content is between 23,39% - 40,87%; the ratio of saturated fatty acid is between 5.97% and 8.83%, the ratio of unsaturated fatty acid is between 91.09% and 94.03%; the ratio of oleic acid is 7,14-14,05%, the ratio of linoleic acid is 74,65 - 84,31%. With regard to the oil content and saturated and unsaturated fatty acids; genotype 12 of Egypt origin; in terms of oleic and linoleic acid content; Kazakhstan genotype 17 and standard Balcı varieties were found to be more suitable than the other genotypes evaluated in this research. Therefore, it may be suggested to use these genotypes as genitors in the development of suitable varieties in terms of oil content and fatty acid composition in Samsun ecological conditions.
