Information on 55 accessions of lentil germplasm collected from Sind and Punjab is summarized in this paper. The germplasm was evaluated for time to 50% flowering, time to maturity, plant height, pods/plant, yield, and incidence of diseases such as rust and lentil blight (Ascochyta lentis). All accessions were microsperma. Accessions PAK 40393 and PAK 40379 were almost free from diseases and could be effectively used in breeding programs
