Abstract: 60 chickpea genotypes were evaluated to study the nature and magnitude of relationship of important agronomic traits with seed yield along with their direct and indirect effects. Days to maturity, number of primary branches per plant, number of secondary branches per plant, pods per plant, plant height and height at first pod had highly significant and positive association with seed yield per plant. While, pods per plant, plant height, number of primary branches/plant, days to maturity and seed volume/weight showed the positive direct effect in determining yield in chickpea. Hence due emphasis should be given to number of pods per plant, number of primary branches and harvest index for improvement of seed yield in chickpea.
