¹ Karadeniz Tarımsal Araştırma Enstitüsü-Samsun - In this study, 18 vetch lines and 1 vetch cultivar (Vicia sativa L.) were tested in Samsun conditions between 2001-2003. The aim of this study was to determine characters that affect seed yield using correlation coefficient and path analysis. At the result, on conditions which this study was carried out it was found out that seed number per pod, number of maturity days, thousand seed weights and hay yield traits are to be considered in the selection studies in order to increase seed yield. According to results, 5 to 18 common vetch lines have selected for next region yield trial. Keywords : Vicia sativa L., seed, path analysis
