Özet:

 

Chickpea has an increasing importance due to potential as a functional food. This study aimed to compare three kabuli genotypes (Gülümser, Sarı and Arda) with three desi genotypes (ICC 3996, Gaffa and ICC 12004) considering nutrients and antioxidant capacity. Therefore, nutritional values of seeds were analyzed in terms of tota l protein, carbohydrate and mineral element contents, while total phenolic and total flavonoid contents besides ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging capacities were tested to investigate antioxidant capacities. Kabuli genotypes were superior to desi genotypes considering seed weight, seed volume and hydration capacity. All genotypes except ICC 3996 were rich in protein. Despite its small seeds, ICC 3996 genotype was identified as the richest genotype according to carbohydrate content. ICC 3996 and Arda had superiority over other genotypes according to ABTS and DPPH antioxidant capacities. Sarı and Gülümser were determined to be superior to other genotypes according to phenolic and flavonoid contents. Desi genotypes were superior to kabuli genotypes considering Ca, Na, Mg, Fe and Cu contents, while Mn and Ni contents were significantly higher in kabuli seeds. The results of the study showed that all genotypes can be accepted as functional food, supported by rich nutritional values and mineral contents.
