A study was carried out at the Horticultural Research Institute, NARC, Islamabad during 2009-2010 to investigate the growth and yield of sweet pepper hybrids under plastic tunnel. The experiment comprises five hybrids viz., Orobelle, Figaro, Green Beauty, Mighty, Capistrano with control Yolowonder. The experiment was set up in a randomized complete block design with four replications. Data were chronicled on number of fruits per plant, fruit weight per plant (kg), length of fruits (cm), diameter of fruits (cm), pericarp thickness (mm), number of locules per plant and yield (t haG 1). Orobella rank first regarding number of fruit/plant (43.47), fruit weight/plant (1.96 kg) and yield (51 t haG 1) followed by Figaro (32.84, 1.72 kg, 48.57 t haG 1) and Capistrano (41.48, 1.76 kg, 45.90 t haG 1), respectively. Mighty hybrid produced highest (5.98, 6.27 cm) value for fruit length and fruit diameter.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
