Present study was conducted to investigate direct and indirect effects and selection criteria among the thirty genotypes of kabuli chickpea. The experiment was carried out in the Regional Agricultural Research Station, Nandyal, Andhra Pradesh during rabi at 2016–17. The genotypes were evaluated in a Randomized Block Design having three replications under rainfed and irrigated conditions. The most important characters accounting for cause and effect relationships on seed yield of kabuli chickpea was shoot biomass under rainfed as well as irrigated conditions through its high direct effect as well as indirect contribution via other phonological and yield attributes. Selection for high shoot biomass and harvest index would leads to the high seed yield in kabuli chickpea.
