Current and Prospective Strategies in the Varietal Improvement of Chilli (<i>Capsicum annuum</i> L.) Specially Heterosis Breeding
Chilli (<i>Capsicum annuum</i> L.) is an herbaceous crop and plays an important role as common spices and vegetables. Pepper (<i>Capsicum</i> spp.) is one of the most cost-effective and agricultural vegetables in the world. The most significant characteristics of peppers, as...
