Main Article Content
Abstract
According to the findings, UNIB C H23 outperformed the comparison varieties and the other tested hybrids. With a potential yield of 12.23 tonnes/ha, the UNIB C H23 hybrid is exhibited superiority in terms of growth (plant height, stem diameter, canopy width, and leaf length) and yield (flowering time, harvest age, fruit length, fruit diameter, fruit weight per fruit, fruit weight per plant, and fruit weight per plot). It is shown that the lowest incidence and severity of Pepper Yellow Leaf Curf Virus (PYLCV) disease (15%). With a potential output of 8.18 tonnes/ha, UNIB C H63 it outperformed other cultivators in terms of growth (plant height, canopy width), yield (fruit diameter, number of fruits per plant, number of fruits per plot), and disease severity (13%).
