ATASAM is a new popcorn hybrid produced by singlecrossing of pure lines “TCK77” as the male parent and “Yerli Yug Sarı” as the female parent. It was registered underthe name ATASAM at the STK (Vegetable Registration Committee) meeting in March 2022 on behalf of the Black SeaAgricultural Research Institute. This variety, which poppining in the shape of a butterfly, has an orange-yellow grain colorand anthocyanin content in the cob tassel. In yield trials conducted in different regions of Turkey, it gave an average yieldof 6610 kg/ha. The average popping volume is 33.3% and the rate of non-popping grain is 2.4%. The average number offlowering day of the ATASAM variety is 77 days, plant height is 215 cm, cob height is 85 cm, 1000 grain weight is 158 g,and hectoliter content is 79.8 kg/hl. The average protein content was measured as 11.2%, fat content as 3.6%, Ca contentas 60.6 mg/kg, Fe content as 30.3 mg/kg, Zn content as 29.2 mg/kg, Cu content as 4.1 mg/kg and Manganese content as11.4 mg/kg. ATASAM variety is 18.6% higher than the standards average in terms of yield and 12% higher in terms ofpopping volume.
