Phenotypic diversity, correlation and importance of variables for fruit quality and yield traits in Brazilian peppers (Capsicum baccatum) (2011, background): “Morphological genetic diversity study in peppers regarding the hybrid performance was done by Geleta et al. (2004) .”
A diallel study of yield components and fruit quality in chilli pepper (Capsicum baccatum) (2009, background): “Geleta et al. (2004) showed that very closely or distantly related parents showed low heterosis, but crosses between parents of intermediate divergence classes tended to show higher heterosis affect for fruit yield, fruit length and fruit weight.”
