摘要：In the study, the minerals contents and phenolic compositions of the leaves of 13 edible wild plant species [Scorzonera cana (C.A.Mey.Hoffm.) Malva neglecta Wallr., Lactuca serriola L., Rumex patien-tia L., Centaurea depressa Bieb., ^tellaria media L., Papaver dubium L., Cichorium intybus L., Tragopo-gon longirostris Bisch., Sonchus oleraceus L., Polygonum cognatum Meissn., Taraxacum officinale, Silene alba (Mill.) Krause] utilized as vegetables in mediterranean region in Turkey were determined. The results showed that Stellaria media L., Centau-rea depressa, Malva neglecta Wallr. Bieb. and Pa-paver dubium L. were the predominant species in terms of potassium and magnesium contents, calcium and iron contents, nitrogen content, phosphorus content respectively. Moreover, in the study Ru-mex patientia L in terms of kaempferol, rutin, ferulic acid, syringic acid, caffeic acid and eriodictiol, Si-lene alba (Mill.) Krause in terms of vanillin, epicat-echin and p-hydroxy benzoic acid and Tragopogon longirostris Bisch. in terms of luteolin, benzoic acid and chlorogenic acid were the richest species.
