Free amino acid contents, including Arginine (Arg), Aspartic acid (Asp), Glutamic acid (Glu), Proline (Pro), Methionine (Met), Tyrosine (Tyr), Leusine + Isoleucine (Leu + Ile) and Phenylalanine (Phe) of 173 different Lathyrus sativus (grass pea) genotypes were studied. Arg was the most fluctuated and at the same time it gave the highest and the lowest yielded free amino acids among the all genotypes, ranging from 0.10 to 506.85 mg g(-1). However, regarding to the mean values, Glu is having the highest levels with 311.61 mg g(-1) among the all. This study provides an additional data for this field of work and seems to be unique.
