Abstract

Geyikli town of Çanakkale Ezine District is located in the west of Çanakkale. Glasswort (Salicornia europaea), one of the many plants collected from nature and consumed in the region; It is collected and used as a vegetable in different regions of Turkiye. Although it has not been actively cultivated in Türkiye, it has taken part in some scientific experiments and is an important halophyte. Glasswort is frequently consumed and traded because it is believed to have many nutritional properties. Collecting this plant from the region and evaluating its important features is an important issue in terms of agricultural development of the region and guiding other agricultural studies that can be done with the plant. The aim of the study is to examine the S. europaea plant collected from its natural environment in Geyikli town of Çanakkale Ezine District in terms of ascorbic acid, total carotenoids, water-soluble dry matter, pH, titratable acidity parameters and luteolin, apigenin, naringin, catechin flavonoids. Thus, to contribute to the agriculture of the region and to guide the various studies that can be done with this plant. As a result of the study, it was determined that the flavonoid contents of the S. europaea population evaluated were listed as apigenin (649.461 mg/kg), naringin (117.51 mg/kg), catechin (13.574 mg/kg) and luteolin (0.984 mg/kg), respectively. In addition, it was determined that it had a high water-soluble dry matter (°Brix) content (11.7 %).
