Özet

The standard varieties of artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) from populations of the Bayrampasa and Sakizi varieties were developed by using a vegetative clonal selection method. This research project was conducted at two different locations and the resulting second lineage for Bayrampasa and the second lineage for Sakiz were found to be the best standard varieties based on the evaluation of the quality parameters. In bract leaves and fruit heads of new developed artichoke varieties, analytical quality characteristics including moisture (%), ash (%), total sugar, invert sugar, sucrose, total fat level and total protein content were analysed to determine the proximate composition. Besides, the well-developed varieties were commercially registered as Sakiz, Bayrampasa, Sebnem and Simsek names by the Ataturk Horticulture Research Institute, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs.
