The present investigation entitled, Phenotypic and Genotypic path coefficient analysis Studies in Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) was conducted at Agricultural Research Station, Badnapur, Dist- Jalna (VNMKV, Parbhani) (M.S.) during Rabi season of 2019-20. The exploration of genetically variable accession or genotypes is the key source of germplasm conservation and potential breeding material for the future use. The phenotypic coefficients of variation (PCV) were slightly higher than genotypic coefficients (GCV) of variation which suggest the role of environment in governing these traits. Similarly, the magnitude of GCV and PCV was observed high for the characters viz., number of primary branches per plant followed by number of pods per plant, seed yield per plant and 100 seed weight. It indicates that selection of desired germplasm for these traits may be worthwhile for improving seed yield in future breeding programme.
