The results of a systematic study of substructures in X-ray surface brightness distributions of BCS, NORAS, REFLEX, radio halo, relic, and cooling flow clusters of galaxies based on RASS data are presented. At least 40 percent of the clusters show substructure. Indications for a cluster morphology-density relation are found. The fraction of clusters with substructure seems to be higher for halo and relic clusters and lower for clusters with cooling flow signature.
