Abstract
Karyotype analysis in fifteen varieties of Lens culinaris was carried out. The varieties differ from each other in chromosome morphology and in total chromatin length. For much detailed studies D2 statistics was applied. According to D2 values the varieties were placed at nine different clusters.From the analysis of chromosome morphology and D2 values, it was revealed that variety formation in Lens culinaris has taken place due to structural changes in the chromosomes. It has also been accompanied by change in total chromatin length in different varieties. The SAT-chromosomes appear to have undergone changes as regard the position of secondary constriction, (NP varieties). In Russian and EC varieties they have not been recorded at all.
