The chickpea Cicer arietinum L. is from the oldest and most important grain legume crops grown widely in the world under different environmental conditions. In the present investigation were included 30 accessions with local and Israeli origin. The structures components of yield in chickpea were studied. It was shown the relationship between yield components with seed production per plant. From made mathematical model of plant which was characterized with high seed yield was showed that 60 seeds per plant and between 15 and 16 pods per plant, the yield of studied accessions was the highest. It was reflected the direct and indirect effects on seed yield and were shown significant factors in which falling different structures components of yield. It was found that direct positive effect on seed yield per plant there was number of pods per plant. This investigation also helped to establish a breeding program in the direction of increasing of seed yields in chickpea.
