This study has been conducted in Çanakkale / Turkey during the years of 2011-2012. This research features six inbred lines and F1 plants with half-diallel mating design. The aim is to determine the heredity of maize seed oil content and the content of maize seed saturated fatty acids. Accordingly, the additive and dominance gene variances have been deter-mined for the heredity of oil content, palmitic acid content and stearic acid content effectively. The range of NSHD and BSHD for maize grain oil content is determined to be between 0.211 and 0.443. The Wr- Vr graphs about parents shows while there exists full dominance for inheritance of oil content and palmitic acid content, there exists partial dominance for inheritance of stearic acid content.
