Abstract:
Hundred chilli germplasm viz., pure germplasm, F2 generation, F5 generation and F6 generation cultivated in Konkan region were studied for quality parameter viz., pungency and natural pigments viz., anthocyanine and chlorophyll content in Vegetative Improvement Scheme, Central Reaserch Station, Wakawali, Dapoli. WKLC-1 of F5 generation showed highest pungency (1.26%), while Konkan Kirti of pure germplasm showed lowest pungency (0.21%). The anthocyanin content ranged from 21.36 to 31.57 mg 100 g-1 with maximum content (31.57 mg 100 g-1) in Konkan kirti of pure germplasm.
