Influence of intra and inter species variation in chilies (Capsicum spp.) on metabolite composition of three fruit segments

Abstract Twenty-one different cultivars from four different species were examined. The highest dry weight was present in seeds (between 35 and 50%) and the average water content was 60%. Placenta and pericarp contained on average 86% water. Total sugars variation between species was 60%. The most co...
