Abstract/ Executive Summary:

An experiment was conducted at four different locations across the country with three capsicum lines with a check (BARI Mistimorich 1) from October 2014 to April 2015. The average number of fruits/plant ranged from as low as 7.26 in ISPN 9-5 to as high as 8.44 in CA 0024. Highest average fruit weight was also obtained from the advanced line CA 0024 (113.55g). Except Narsingdi this line showed best performance in other three locations in this regard. The highest average yield (t/ha) was obtained from the advanced line CA 0024 (30.52 t/ha). The lowest yield came from ISPN 9-5 which was 18.76 t/ha.

Keywords: Regional yield rial, Coloured capsicum, Yield

Location: Joydebpur, Jamalpur, Narsingdi and Comilla

Start Date: 00-10-2014

End Date: 00-04-2015

Program Area: Variety and Species

Commodity: Chilli

Objectives:

The study was undertaken to develop improve colour capsicum varieties .

Methodology:

The experiment was carried out at four different locations across the country, which included Joydebpur, Jamalpur, Narsingdi and Comilla during October, 2014 to April, 2015. Four lines/varieties of some coloured capsicum collected from different sources were included in the study. Seeds were sown on seed bed on 1st -15th October 2014. Ten to fifteen days after sowing when the seedlings attained 2-3 leaf stage, then they were transferred to the polybag each 12.75x10.15 cm size and filled with potting media comprising soil, The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block (RCB) Design with three replications. The unit plot size was 4.0x1.0 m and the plants were placed at 50 x40 cm distance. Cowdung,-N-P-K-S-Zn@ 10t-101-66-100-20-2 kg per hectare respectively were applied. Half of the quantity of cowdung was applied during final land preparation. The remaining half of cowdung, the entire quantity of P, Zn, S and one third each of N and K were applied during pit preparation. Other cultural operations such as irrigating the crop at different growth stages, weeding, mulching of the pit soil etc. were done as and when needed. The recorded data for different characters were analyzed statistically using MSTAT program to find out the variation among the different lines.

Achievement/Findings:

Considering yield performance of the lines from four locations, it was evident that all the three lines performed better. After four years completion of RYT in different locations, the advanced line CA 0024 has already been proposed as the first yellow coloured OP(open pollinated) capsicum variety namely BARI Mistimorich 2.
