Graphical Analysis For Yield And Yield Attributing Traits in Sweet Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.)

In a study carried out with ten diverse genotypes of Sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) and forty five F1 crosses generated from them through 10 x 10 diallel mating design, it was found that a lot of diversity was present with respect to most of the traits as depicted by scattered positions of parental arrays in the Wr-Vr graphs. The regression line intersecting the Wr axis above the origin for most of the traits indicated partial dominance. Position of the parental arrays on the graphs indicated the importance of both dominant and recessive alleles for different traits. .
