Genetic diversity exploration in (Capsicum annuum L.) sweet pepper germplasm through chemical and morphological characterization
Journal: Pure and Applied Biology
Year: 2025

The study assessed genetic variation in sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum), valued for its economic importance and diverse fruit types.With broad genetic diversity, it holds the potential for enhancing yield and nutrition through breeding.Ninety-five Capsicum genotypes were assessed for nine morphoagronomic and six biochemical traits across different growth stages using Biodiversity International descriptors and the Association of Official Analytical Chemists.The maximum yield/plant (1809.4g) was ac
