Lathyrus aphaca L. is a crop of rabi season with a strong potential both as human food, animal feed and fodder. It contains a non-protein amino acid β -ODAP which causes degeneration of motor neurons i.e., neurolathyrism. A total of 10 populations growing in different areas of Jammu region of J&K UT and its adjoining areas were selected and subjected to HPLC for the quantification of their respective β-ODAP contents. Of these 10, three grouped into one subcluster having low quantity of β-ODAP. The plants of these populations will be useful in breeding programmes and can be further used as a substitute for green pea.
