The purpose of the research was to determine the inheritance of black seed coat colour in lentil variety ‘Beluga’. The seeds collected from F1 plants in cross of ‘Rauza’ (yellow seeds) × ‘Beluga’ (black seeds) were of grey colour with black mottles. F2 ratio of nonblack and black seeds was 62:6, which corresponded to 15:1 dihybrid segregation. It is concluded that the black seed coat colour of ‘Beluga’ is controlled by two dominant genes.
