Phenotypic diversity for agronomic characteristics was determined in an experiment with 29 landraces and 14 improved varieties of rye from the Nordic area, Germany and Poland. The accessions were scored for 12 characters. Effects of the location, year, type, and country of origin for landraces were investigated with analysis of variance. Phenotypic variations for the traits were estimated using the Shannon–Weaver diversity index. The genetic variation was high, with an average of H ₀ = 0.566. The landraces from Norway, Sweden and Finland showed the highest variation, whereas the improved varieties had the lowest. The German material also had low variation but the status of this material is uncertain. The genetic diversity showed that 70% of the variation was found within the accessions. A cluster analysis was carried out to identify the relationship between the accessions. The material grouped into eight clusters, where clusters I to V included landraces from Sweden, Finland and Norway, except for cluster III, which included one improved variety from Denmark. Cluster VI comprised a single Swedish landrace from Gotland. Most of the improved varieties were in cluster VII and the last cluster contained accessions from Germany and Sweden.
