Seed chemical composition of 6 chickpea (Cicer arietinum ) cultivars imported from Australia (cv. Kaniva, Dooen), Greece (cv. Gravia, Evros, Thiva) and from Turkey (cv. No. 456) was investigated. The highest concentration was of potassium and phosphorus (12.3 mg g** (-1) and 4.04 mg g ** (-1) respectively), medium concentration of calcium and magnesium (1.15 mg g** (-1) and 1.27 mg g** (-1) respectively) and the lowest concentration of sodium (0.42 mg g** (-1)). The chickpea seeds from Turkey were characterized by the lowest concentration of mineral nutrients. The mean concentrations of ash, crude protein and total amino acids were 30.8 mg g** (-1), 200.98 mg g** (-1) and 71.98 mg g** (-1), respectively. Considerable variability of all the investigated traits was confirmed and should be used in chickpea breeding programmes.
