Combined analysis of variance showed significant differences between treats of oil seed content and most fatty acids traits in both sowing dates. Therefore, significant genetic variation existed for all traits among the genotypes studied. Estimates of broad and narrow heritability of most traits under late sowing date were less than the normal sowing date and this was mainly due to less esti mation of variance components under late sowing date conditions. In addition, broad heritability was estimated to be generally medium to high (between 72.01 to 100) in both normal and late sowing date conditions. The narrow heritability of traits in both sowing conditions ranged from 20.81% to 80.20%. Therefore, selection for traits with moderate to low narrow heritability in early generations would not be much useful, and it is preferable to use heterosis to improve these traits. In both sowing dates non-additive effect was more evident in control of quality traits. Therefore, selection for these traits would not be effective without using the effect of gene dominance.
