“…Among Begomoviruses, Chilli leaf curl virus (ChiLCV) is one of the most destructive disease for chilli pepper. The virus is distributed in almost all equatorial regions of the World [183]. Pepper golden mosaic virus (PepGMV) (previously named Serrano golden mosaic begomovirus and Texas pepper begomovirus) and Pepper huastego yellow vein virus (PHYVV) represent a new threat for pepper production in Central America.…”

Pepper (Capsicum spp.) is one of the major vegetable crops grown worldwide largely appreciated for its economic importance and nutritional value. This crop belongs to the large Solanaceae family, which, among more than 90 genera and 2500 species of flowering plants, includes commercially important vegetables such as tomato and eggplant. The genus includes over 30 species, five of which (C. annuum, C. frutescens, C. chinense, C. baccatum, and C. pubescens) are domesticated and mainly grown for consumption as food and for non-food purposes (e.g., cosmetics). The main challenges for vegetable crop improvement are linked to the sustainable development of agriculture, food security, the growing consumers’ demand for food. Furthermore, demographic trends and changes to climate require more efficient use of plant genetic resources in breeding programs. Increases in pepper consumption have been observed in the past 20 years, and for maintaining this trend, the development of new resistant and high yielding varieties is demanded. The range of pathogens afflicting peppers is very broad and includes fungi, viruses, bacteria, and insects. In this context, the large number of accessions of domesticated and wild species stored in the world seed banks represents a valuable resource for breeding in order to transfer traits related to resistance mechanisms to various biotic stresses. In the present review, we report comprehensive information on sources of resistance to a broad range of pathogens in pepper, revisiting the classical genetic studies and showing the contribution of genomics for the understanding of the molecular basis of resistance.

“…Their distinctive symptoms in infected plants are easily recognised. The typical symptoms consist of leaf curling, puckering, rolling, shortening of internodes and petioles, blistering of interveinal areas, thickening and swelling of the veins, older leaves turned out to be leathery and brittle, crowding of leaves and stunting of whole plants [14]. Moreover, the typical leaf curl symptoms and an increase in disease severity in infected plants are due to the presence of cognate betasatellites associated with the virus [34].…”

“…The disease appears in epidemic form in autumn season in North Indian plains and during the summer season in South India. The characteristic symptoms of ChiLCD include upward curling, reduced size of leaves, puckering, stunted growth with no flowers and fruits in severely affected plants [14]. A recent survey and molecular characterization of chilli infecting virus revealed that a new begomovirus species, namely, Chilli leaf curl Vellanad virus (ChiLCVV) is responsible for ChiLCD in Kerala, India [15].…”

Chilli leaf curl virus (ChiLCV) is a severe threat to the successful cultivation of the chilli peppers. Besides, the genetics and heterosis for important traits under the influence of ChiLCV infestation is not well studied. Therefore here, were crossed seven genotypes (lines) with high yield and quality attributes with four highly resistant genotypes (testers) in a line (L) × tester (T) mating design to produce 28 F1 hybrids. Parents and their hybrids were evaluated for yield attributes and ChiLCV resistance. All the four testers were symptomless and among seven lines, two were moderately resistant and five were moderately susceptible to the ChiLCV. Among 28 F1 hybrids, 12 showed a moderate resistant reaction, 11 were moderately susceptible and five susceptible to the ChiLCV disease. Based on per se performance, most promising hybrid combinations were L3 × T2, L6 × T1, and L3 × T1 for yield attributes. Whereas the superior crosses for ChiLCV resistance based on heterobeltosis, standard heterosis and specific combining ability test (SCA) effects were L6 × T1 and L7 × T3. Lines and testers showed significant differences for all the characters except for the plant height. The general combining ability (GCA) effects for testers were significant for all the traits except for days to first harvest. The ratio of σ2GCA/σ2SCA indicated the predominance of non-additive gene effects in the inheritance of traits studied in this experiment. The contribution of lines was more compared to testers for all the characters except for primary branches plant-1. Overall, this study provides valuable information regarding the genetics and heterosis in chilli with respect to ChiLCV infestation

“…One of the main cause is the pathogen attack, which can lead to loss of production and reduce the quality (Ahmed et al 2012;Fatima et al 2015;Ferniah et al 2015). In this regard, the production management is very important for farmers as it affects the quality and the quantity of chili peppers (Thakur et al 2018). Zhu et al (2011) and Thakur et al (2018) reveals that any type of chili, either planted in lowland or highland, may suffer from the disease attacks.…”

Sopialena, Sila S, Rosfiansyah, Nurdiana J. 2018. The role of neem leaves as organic pesticides in chili pepper (Capsicum frutescens). Nusantara Bioscience 10: 246-250. The agricultural crops and horticultural plants are always under constant assault caused by diseases, insect pests, viruses, and other pathogens which may substantially reduce yield. Chili Pepper (Capsicum annum L.) is a popular horticultural plant of the Solanaceae family in Indonesia. Some serious diseases widely found in chili peppers, are anthracnose (Colletotrichum capsici), leaf spot (Cercospora capsici) and fruit rot (Phytophthora capsici). To manage the potential problems, this study is aimed to provide an explanatory knowledge of the use of plant-based pesticide to control the diseases in chili peppers. The information is meant to fill the knowledge gaps in the use of plant-based pesticide to control the chili diseases. The use of nonchemical pesticide benefits not only the environment but also as an organic strategy for disease management. This research used a randomized complete block design (RCBD) categorized into four groups and six different treatments. The organic pesticides were prepared from the extract of neem leaves, soursop leaves, lemongrass extract, tuba root extract, and kenikir/Cosmos caudatus extract). The result indicates that neem leaves are the most effective organic pesticides to control the chili pepper disease in Indonesia.
