The aim of this master thesis is to compare cultivars of asparagus lettuce (Lactuca sativa L. var. angustana L. H. Bailey) and Indian lettuce (Lactuca indica L.). Five cultivars of asparagus lettuce and one cultivar of Indian lettuce were included in the experiment. Morphological parameters, yields and content substances (vitamin C, carotenoids, nitrates and dry matter) were evaluated. The experiment was successfully carried out on the grounds of the Faculty of Horticulture in Lednice in years 2015 and 2016. Contents of vitamin C, carotenoids, nitrates and dry matter were subsequently evaluated in a laboratory. The share of domestic production in the total consumption of vegetables in the Czech Republic could be enhanced by expanding the range of other, valuable, Asian asparagus and Indian lettuces.
