The reaction of 93 Indian lines of lentil to rust is given. The variation in structural characters and both chemical and biochemical constituents of three resistant and four susceptible cultivars was examined. There was no difference between the groups of cultivars in structural characters. There were higher levels of reducing and non-reducing sugars, nitrogen and zinc in susceptible cultivars, whereas resistant ones had more P, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn and K
