Production and evaluation of sweet pepper, Capsicum annuum L. hybrids using combining ability analysis
An analysis of combining ability of traits related with production per plant was carried out using a diallel crossing between different sweet pepper cultivars, Capsicum annuum L. (seven parents and 21 F1 hybrids from all possible crossing in one direction), according to the methodology proposed by Griffing (1956), selecting experimental method 2 and model 1. Significant differences were found for the two types of combining ability (g.c.a. and s.c.a.) on the expression of the characters production per plant, fruits per plant and fruit mean weight. A non-additive gene action was prevailing for these characters. Hybrids Roque 8 x Yolo Wonder and Morviones x rAC-7 exhibited high s.c.a. effects and high mean production per plant.
