Abstract : Development of physic nut (Jatropha curcas Linn.) needs to be undertaken to support sustainable energy programs. The germplasm information is a very important first step. This study aims to obtain the information of morphological similarity analysis of the eight J. curcas genotypes. The materials used were SP-8, SP-16, SP-33, SP-38, SM- 35, HS-49, IP-2A and IP-3P genotypes from Asembagus Situbondo experimental garden. The observed characters included stem and leaf morphology. The results showed that the eight genotypes of J. curcas have 82% similarity level. Therefore, it can be concluded that the genotype has a low genetic diversity. The cluster analysis showed that two groups of similarity. Group 1 consisting of HS-49, SP-8, SP-33, and SP-38 with 83.3% similarity, and group 2 consisted of IP-3P, SM-35, IP-2A and SP-16 with 83.7% similarity. The SP-33 and SP-38 genotypes had the highest similarity (90%). Keywords - Dendogram, Genotype, Similarity, Jatropha curcas Linn.
