Abstract :This research was carried out to determine karyotypes of six pea lines. Chromosome numbers, lenghts, branch indices, relative lengths and chromosome types of the peas were studied. In all lines chromosome number was 2n= (2x) = 14. Chro-mosome lenghts were between 3.05 – 5.00 m, while branch indices and relative lengths were between 0.38-0.98 and 5.72-9.08 respectively. Types of chromosomes have been found to be metacentric and submetacentric. One satellite was observed in 2 lines while the rest of the lines contained 2 satellites on two chromosomes.Keywords : Bezelye (Pisum sativum L.), kromozom, karyotip analizi.
