The aim of this study is to determine the content and composition of essential oil in domestic and foreign commercial anise (Pimpinella anisum L.) genotypes. A total of 133 anise materials, 122 of which are domestic and 11 of which are from foreign origin, were used in the study. The essential oil content ranged from 1.74% to 7.69% as a result of chemical analysis on anise fruits. The ratio of trans-anethol, the main component of essential oil, ranged was between 84.61% to 97%. Other components were identified in essential oils were pseudo-2-eugenyl-2-methyl butyrate was between 0.71% to 12.43%, p-allylanisole was between 0.14% to 2.08% and methyl eugenol was between 0.14% to 0.50%. As a result of the study, it has been observed that a significant variation has occurred in domestic and foreign anise genotypes in terms of quality characteristics.
