Photometrical and HST/WFPC2 morphological data of galaxies in dense environments of the radio galaxies 3C 220.1 (z = 0.62), 3C 34 (z = 0.689), 3C 184 (z = 0.996) and 3C 210 (z = 1.169), covering a total field of 24.8 arcmin2, are used to determine the rate of major galaxy merging/interaction. In our study we first determine the photometric redshifts of galaxies by means of Z-PEG software (Le Borgne & Rocca-Volmerange, 2002) and then we analyze the frequency of galaxies close pairs in the considered fields. A strong pair isolation criterion in terms of the apparent angular separation and rest-frame line-of-sight velocity difference is used.
