        <dc:description>The objectives of this study were to evaluate genetic variation among kabuli chickpea genotypes and to&#13;
determine the relationships among agronomic traits with seed yield. Field experiments were conducted during&#13;
the long and short rain seasons of 2013 using alpha lattice design in triplicate. Data on agro-morphological traits&#13;
were recorded using descriptors for chickpea and analysed using SAS 2013 and Genstat 2014. There were highly&#13;
significant (p &lt; 0.001) variations among genotypes and genotype by environment interactions for all studied&#13;
traits. The top five high yielding genotypes were ICCV 05315, ICC 13461, ICCV 07313, ICC 13764 and ICCV&#13;
00302. Genotypes ranking for most agronomic traits varied across environments which indicated a crossover&#13;
type of genotype by environment interactions. Evaluated genotypes were polymorphic for six qualitative traits.&#13;
Seed yield ha-1 was positively and significantly (p &lt; 0.05) correlated with biomass yield ha-1, pods plant-1, plant&#13;
canopy width and secondary branches plant-1. These characters could be used for indirect selection of high&#13;
yielding genotypes. The first principal component explained 57% of the total variation and was associated with&#13;
days to 50% flowering and podding, plant canopy width, plant height, number of primary and secondary&#13;
branches plant-1, days to 75% maturity, number of pods plant-1 and biomass yield ha-1 as positive contributors.&#13;
The documented information on genetic variation and association of agronomic traits with seed yield can be&#13;
exploited to devise suitable breeding strategies and chickpea germplasm conservation.</dc:description>
