Researches Concerning the Influence of Some Morphological Characters on Paprika Pepper Yield used in Solarium Type.

Paprika bell / chilli peppers fruits are consumed upon technical or physiological maturity, fresh or processed in the preserve industry or as bell / chilli peppers paprika. Each cultivating country focused on a certain feature of the different varieties of paprika bell / chilli peppers: this resulted in cultivars adapted to local conditions and, through improvement, to hybrids that meet producers and consumers requirements. In Spain, a paprika bell / chilli pepper is cultivated on lime soils, which makes them sweet. In Hungary, they market such bell / chilli peppers paprika as: delikatess, edelsuss (sweet), halbsuss (sweety), rosen (rose), and hot. In Romania, paprika bell / chilli pepper was introduced in the 19th century by Bulgarian vegetable growers. The first paprika bell / chilli peppers crops were around Timişoara (Cenadul Mare, Tomnatic, Vizejdia, Lovrin), circa 1923. By the end of the 19^th century, paprika bell / chilli peppers were cultivated all over Transylvania. The experiment developed during 2011 at the Didactic and Research Base of the Faculty of Horticulture and Forestry, from B.U.A.S.V.M. from Timişoara. The biological material used in the trials was represented by 5 cultivars (hybrids and lines) of foreign origin, i.e.: Délibáb F₁ Sláger F₁, Bolero F₁, SJN 5 and SJD 5. To do so, we set comparative cultures after the monofactorial method with randomised blocks and 4 replicates. The highest values of the technological factors on fruit weight per plant were in the genotypes Délibáb F₁, Sláger F₁ and SJD 5. There was strong instability associated with a high impact of the interaction genotype x technological factors on phenotypic expression of fruit weight in the line SJN 5. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
