Sumario:In this study, statistical analysis was performed on mitotic metaphase chromosomes of 26 Lathyrus taxa, four of which are endemic. According to the findings obtained as a result of analysis, taxa close to each other were determined. Chromosome characteristics were revealed based on the arm lengths of taxa. Based on these, ANOVA, correlation analysis, PCA and cluster analysis were performed to determine the chromosomal relationships between taxa. Morphological similarities of plant taxa and chromosomal statistics results may not be always parallel to each other. According to Cluster Analysis, especially L. hirsutus - L. odoratus, L. brachypterus subsp. haussknechtii - L. phaselitanus, L. stenophyllus - L. chloranthus, L. gorgoni var. gorgoni, - L. nissolia - L. pratensis, L. tuberosus - L. annuus taxa are closely related.
