  • Paprika—Capsicum Annuum L.1 James M
    HS637 Paprika—Capsicum annuum L.1 James M. Stephens2 Paprika is a type of mild pepper that is dried, ground, and used as a spice. Most of the paprika peppers grown in the United States have been introduced from southern Europe. In areas where grown, selections have been made for color, shape, and thickness of pods, and flavor of the ground product. Some of the local selections have become fairly well established as to type, but none as varieties. Processors have developed varieties for dehydration, but these are not available for public planting. The so-called Hungarian paprika is grown more widely in the United States than any other. Spanish paprika is also grown but to a lesser extent. Figure 1. Paprika pepper. Description Credits: James M.

  • Hot Peppers and Specialty Sweet Peppers
    Center for Crop Diversification Crop Profile CCD-CP-101 Hot Peppers and Specialty Sweet Peppers Cheryl Kaiser1 and Matt Ernst2 Introduction Hot peppers, also known as chili (or chile) peppers, owe most of their “heat” or pungency to a chemical substance called capsaicin. This chemical is concen- trated in the cross walls of the fruit and around the developing seeds. Chili peppers can be mild to fiery hot, depending on the amount of capsaicin present. The amount of capsaicin in peppers is measured in Scoville Heat Units (SHU). Currently, the hottest pep- per is considered to be the ‘Carolina Reaper’ which has 2.2 million SHUs. A combination of genetics and environment are responsible for the amount of heat in hot peppers. Peppers that do not contain capsa- icin, such as bell peppers (0 SHUs), are considered “sweet.” In addition to the hot types, other specialty HABANERO PEPPERS peppers include sweet varieties of unusual shape, size HABANEROS (Capsicum chinense) are extremely hot and/or color. peppers that are small and lantern-shaped. They are light green to bright orange when ripe. Types of Hot and Specialty Sweet Peppers Unless otherwise noted, the following peppers are ITALIAN or CUBANELLE types are sweet to mildly hot, classified as the speciesCapsicum annuum. long, and somewhat flattened. These flavorful peppers change from yellow-green to orange, and then to red ANAHEIM peppers, also known as NEW MEXICAN CHILE, as they ripen. are a mild to hot pepper that are considerably longer than jalapeños. They are bright green to red when JALAPEÑO peppers range from sweet to mild to very fresh and brownish red when dried.

However, the amount and diversity of these compounds in each fruit specimen depend on its genotype and on a number of environmental factors. This work describes the quantitative ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to photodiode-array (UHPLC-PDA) analysis of the capsinoids content in four varieties of pepper (‘Habanero’, ‘Habanero Roxo’, ‘Bode’, and ‘Malagueta’) grown until different development stages in a greenhouse under controlled conditions.

  • Hot Pepper (Capsicum Spp.) – Important Crop on Guam
    Food Plant Production June 2017 FPP-05 Hot Pepper (Capsicum spp.) – Important Crop on Guam Joe Tuquero, R. Gerard Chargualaf and Mari Marutani, Cooperative Extension & Outreach College of Natural & Applied Sciences, University of Guam Most Capsicum peppers are known for their spicy heat. Some varieties have little to no spice such as paprika, banana peppers, and bell peppers. The spice heat of Capsicum peppers are measured and reported as Scoville Heat Units (SHU). In 1912, American pharmacist, Wilbur Scoville, developed a test known as the, Scoville Organoleptic Test, which was used to measure pungency (spice heat) of Capsicum peppers. Since the 1980s, pungency has been more accurately measured by high-performance liquid chromatography Source: https://phys.org/news/2009-06-domestication- (HPLC).

  • Relatively Few Cases of Abnormalities in Capsicum Frutescens Have Received Attention in the Literature
    ABNORMALITIES IN THE FLOWER AND FRUIT OF CAPSICUM FRUTESCENS ' By H. L. CocHRAN 2 Assistant in Department of Vegetable CropSy New York (Cornell) Agricultural Experiment Station INTRODUCTION Relatively few cases of abnormalities in Capsicum frutescens have received attention in the literature. The cases reported are scattered over a period of more than half a century. No detailed historical study has apparently been made to differentiate between abnormali- ties infrequently occurring in the flower and the normal flower itself, and only in the paper by Harris (6)^ has emj such work been reported on those more frequently found in the fruit. It is the object of this paper, therefore, to review the literature conflned to abnormalities in the genus Capsicum^ and to present a more detailed study of those occurring in both the flower and the fruit. The work reported here was done in connection with som.e studies that are being carried out on fruit setting in the pepper (Capsicum frutescens L.) as influenced by certain environmental factors. LITERATURE REVIEW The earliest and yet perhaps the most extensive investigation con- cerning abnormalities in the genus Capsicum is that of Terracciano (lô)y who noted the changing of stamens into carpels and a growing together of these with the pistil in the flower of C, grossum. He also reported two types of abnormalities in the fruit of C annuum. In one form the walls of the fruit, terminated by a hollow tubiform style open at the top, showed five protuberant evaginations. Inter- nally the fruit produced no seeds but contained five similar fruits, likewise without seeds and with short styles having almost perfect stigmas, disposed upon the apex of the thalamus.

  • Influence of Intra and Inter Species Variation in Chilies (Capsicum Spp.)
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Infuence of intra and inter species variation in chilies (Capsicum spp.) on metabolite composition of three fruit segments Tilen Zamljen*, Jerneja Jakopič, Metka Hudina, Robert Veberič & Ana Slatnar Twenty-one diferent cultivars from four diferent 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 concentrated in the various cultivar pericarps were ascorbic acid ranging from 368.1 to 2105.6 mg/100 g DW and citric acid ranging from 1464.3 to 9479.9 mg/100 g DW. Total phenolic content ranged from 2599.1 mg/100 DW in ‘Chilli AS- Rot’ to 7766.7 mg/100 g DW in ’Carolina Reaper’. The placenta had 23.5 times higher phenolic content than seeds. C. chinense and C. chinense × C. frutescens had 3.5 to 5 times higher capsaicinoid content compared to C. annuum and C. baccatum, with ’Carolina Reaper’ having the highest content at 7334.3 mg/100 g DW and ’Chilli AS- Rot’ the lowest (318.7 mg/100 g DW). Chilies are plants belonging to the genus Capsicum (Solanaceae)1. Capsicum annuum L. is the most commonly cultivated species2. It includes pungent and non-pungent or sweet cultivars. It is also the economically most important of all of the Capsicum species. For C. annuum species, the pungency values range from 0 SHU (Scov- ille heat units) to 100,000 SHU.
