Abstract: The article presents the results of the study of the total tocopherol content (TTC) in the seeds of eight oil and confectionery variety populations bred at V.S. Pustovoit All-Russian Research Institute of Oil Crops in 2016–2018. The variability of TTC in the varieties amounted to 415–533 mg/kg on the average for three years. It was found that the TTC trait depends more on the genotype of the variety, but environmental conditions can also have a significant effect. A reliable negative correlation was found between the amount of tocopherols and thousand-seed weight and seed huskness, and a positive correlation with oil content and seed weight. It was found that the varieties with high oil content Skormas, Umnik, and Platonych had a consistently high level of tocopherols in all three years of testing.
