ELIZONDO-CABALCETA, Esteban  y  MONGE-PEREZ, José Eladio. Quality and yield evaluation of 12 sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) genotypes grown under greenhouse conditions in Costa Rica. Tecnología en Marcha [online]. 2017, vol.30, n.2, pp.36-47. ISSN 0379-3982.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18845/tm.v30i2.3194.

Quality and yield of 12 sweet pepper genotypes grown under greenhouse conditions in Alajuela, Costa Rica, were evaluated. Differences between genotypes were found for days to start of harvest (74 - 91 days after transplant), number of first quality fruits per plant (2,25 - 7,63), mean first-quality fruit weight (106,65 - 185,15 g), and commercial (46,94 - 78,35 ton/ha) and total yield (57,80 - 88,82 ton/ha). Cortés, Jumbo and V-701 were the genotypes that yielded the highest number of first-quality fruits (between 6,88 and 7,63 fruits/plant) and the highest commercial yield (between 70,96 and 78,35 ton/ha).
