Lentil is one of the major legume crops in all over the world including Turkey. Lentil may be helpful in meeting the protein need of diet. This study was carried out on Kislik kirmizi 51, Yesil pul 11, Yesil pul 21, Firat 89, Emre 20 and Malazgirt 89 lens cultivars were used as material to find relationships of these varieties with their chemical characteristics. Moisture, dry matter content, ash content, nitrogen content, crude protein, water soluble protein, total carbohydrates, crude fiber and crude fat contents were determined. Principle component analysis was applied on chemical components according to cultivars. Seed yield ranged from 167 kg to 180 kg. The highest seed yield was obtained from Yesil Pull 11 cultivar. The factor 1 (dry matter), factor 2 (moisture), factor 3 (crude protein) affected cumulative variance between 82.7 and 90.5% according to cultivars. There were significant relationships between seed yield and dry matter at all cultivars.
