1 S.D.Ü. Ziraat Fakültesi, Tarla Bitkileri Bölümü, Isparta - This research was carried out in 1999-2000 in Isparta ecological condition. In this research seed yield and some yield components of 16 common vetch lines and cultivar (Vicia sativa L.) were investigated. At the result the earliest vetch was the line of 2558; the highest plan height, 1000 seed weight, seed yield and biological yield were obtained from the vetch line of L.147. As a general, the highest biological yield were found with cultivar and lines that have the highest plant height and grain yield. Keywords : Line, cultivar, plant height, 1000 grain weight, seed yield, biological yield
