An experiment was conducted at the experimental area of Dicle University Faculty of Agriculture, Department of
Field Crops in 2014 growing season. A total of 107 diverse sesame accessions collected from Mediterranean, Aegean
and Southeastern Anatolia Region of Turkey were sown on 3 May 2014. The experiment was laid out in an
augmented experimental design with eleven replications. A total of 25 morphological and agronomical characters
of 107 sesame accessions were evaluated following to IPGRI (International Plant Genetic Resources Institute)
descriptors of sesame, and the obtained data were evaluated according to their qualitative and quantitative traits.
Frequency distribution of qualitative traits and correlation coefficients of quantitative traits were determined.
According to the frequency of accessions analyzed, the variability in terms of the qualitative traits examined. Regarding
the relationship between quantitative traits, the number of capsules, 1000 seed weight and harvest index
were determined significantly affecting the seed yield.
