Abstract: Fifteen promising varieties (DDR 23, DDR 27, DDR 44, HPP 4, HUDP 15, HUP 2, IM 9101, IM 9102, JM 6, JP 885, KPP 103, KPMR 400, KPMR 522, Rachna and Sapna) of fieldpea were studied for theis various attributes relating to the distinctness, uniformity and stability test National guidelines. The varieties of fieldpea following its National guidelines. The varieties were distinguished by more precisely definable and discernable morphological characteristics namely, stem anthocyanin coloration, foliage colour, leaf/ leaflets type, rabbit eared stipule, stipule type, leaf juncture colour, flowering time, plant type, flower colour, number of pods/axil, pod shape, pod beak, seed shape, cotyledon colour, seed size and test mottling. These characters expressed uniformity and stability over years. Therefore, present character profile can be used as reference for seed industries, certification agencies, seed testing labs, researchers, etc, and also in preparation of final draft/ data base of this crop varieties in context to the Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmer’s Rights and globalization of WTO regimes.
