Pepper leaf curl virus (PepLCV) is a serious threat to pepper (Capsicum spp.) production worldwide. Molecular mechanism underlying pepper plants response to PepLCV infection is key to develop PepLCV resistant varieties. In this study, we generated transcriptome profiles of PepLCV resistant genotype (BS-35) and susceptible genotype (IVPBC-535) after artificial viral inoculation using microarray ...

Chilli peppers have been shown to enhance diet-induced thermogenesis (DIT) and reduce energy intake (EI) in some studies, but there are few data on other pungent spices. The primary aim of the present study was to test the acute effects of black pepper (pepper), ginger, horseradish and mustard in a meal on 4 h postprandial DIT. The secondary aim was to examine the effects on subjective appetite...

The goals of this study were to explore the characteristics nitrogen (N) absorption and utilisation chilli peppers (Capsicum annuum L.), improve rate nitrogen, provide a theoretical basis for scientific fertilisation. In experiment, pepper cv. Huoyanjiaowang was used as material, potted sand cultures field randomised block experiments conducted effects fertilisation different forms on photosynt...

Chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) is an herbaceous crop and plays important role as common spices vegetables. Pepper spp.) one of the most cost-effective agricultural vegetables in world. The significant characteristics peppers, various pharmacological uses, are pungency oleoresin (color). Cabsicum L. widely used a medicinal herb Mediterranean diet (at present, C. var. acuminatum Fingerh. Capsicum fr...

Phytobacteria are potent threat to sustainable chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) production all over the world. In past, bacterial infections were reported in plantations of Pakistan but data is still scanty and sporadic. Therefore, this study was planned evaluate germplasm resistance against local putative isolates. Chilli infected disease samples collected from Mianwali, Taxila, Chakwal, Islamabad ...
