The present investigation was carried out at Vegetable Experimental Field, SKAUST-K, Shalimar during rabi 2019. The experiment was carried out in Randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. Twenty-eight turnip genotypes were used during the study. The genotypes were grouped into five clusters. Cluster I had maximum number of genotypes (17), followed by cluster II with six genotypes, cluster III with three genotypes and Cluster IV and V with one genotype each. Maximum intra-cluster distance was recorded in cluster II (179.19) followed by cluster III (177.92). Maximum inter-cluster distance was observed between cluster IV and V (1518.63) followed by intercluster distance between cluster III and V (996.20). Maximum contribution towards total divergence was shown by total root weight (33.86%) followed by leaf area (26.23%) and anthocyanin content (18.78%).
