Paper Summary

A study on chilli hybrids found high variability in fruit yield traits like number of fruits per plant and fruit weight. Traits like fruit length and capsaicin content also showed high heritability and genetic advance. Fruit yield per plant was positively linked to number of fruits per plant and fruit length.
