Abstract:
The performance of 25 chilli (16 exotic and 9 local) genotypes
for yield and associated traits and reaction to field diseases
was assessed at the National Crops Resources Research
Institute (NaCRRI)- Namulonge from June-November, 2009.
Total and marketable yields ranged from 1.9-9.9 t/ha and 0.97.6
t/ha, respectively. Genotype 28, 11, 4 and 14 gave the highest
yields of 9.9, 9.1, 7.7 and 7.6 t/ha, respectively. The rest of the
genotypes had yields ranging from 1.9 to 7.2 t/ha. Leaf spots
and virus were the most prominent diseases. Some genotypes,
especially 4, 12 and 22 appeared resistant to both Coaenophora
and Phytophthora blights.
Les performances de 25 génotypes à base de piment (16
caractères exotiques et 9 locaux) pour le rendement et associés
à des maladies et la réaction sur le terrain a été évaluée à
« L’Institut National de Recherche de Ressources des
Cultures » (National Crops Resources Research Institut
(NaCRRI) - Namulonge de Juin-Novembre 2009. Les
rendements totaux et vendables variaient de 1,9 à 9.9 t / ha et
de 0,9 à 7,6 t / ha, respectivement. Les Génotypes 28, 11, 4 et
14 ont donné les meilleurs rendements de 9,9, 9,1, 7,7 et 7,6 t /
ha, respectivement. Le reste des génotypes avaient des
rendements variant de 1,9 à 7,2 t / ha. Les taches foliaires et le
virus ont été les maladies les plus éminents. Certains génotypes,
en particulier, 4, 12 et 22 semblaient résistants à la fois aux
maladies de Coaenophora et des Phytophthora.

Notes:
"The 2010 RUFORUM Biennial Conference was the second in the series. The main objective of the Biennial conferences is to provide a platform for agricultural research for development stakeholders in Africa and beyond to actively exchange findings and experiences, while at the same time learning lessons towards improving performance of the agricultural sector and ultimately people’s livelihoods. The biennial conference is RUFORUM’s most comprehensive meeting for the diversity of stakeholers in agriculture. It is especially dedicated to graduate students and their supervisors, grantees in RUFORUM member universities and alumni. It is a platform for peer review, quality control, mentorship, networking and shared learning. This record contains an extended abstract accepted under the theme of agronomy".
