Abstract

A field Study was conducted from February 2023 to August 2023 at Chaurjahari, Rukum West, Nepal to evaluate how various yield-attributing characters affect the ultimate yield of capsicum in Californian Wonder variety under varying nitrogen levels. The experiment followed a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with four replications. The treatments were varied nitrogen doses from T1 to T5 corresponding to 0kg/ha, 100 kg/ha, 150kg/ha, 200kg/ha, and 205kg/ha. Data collected as independent variables are plant height, number of primary and secondary branches, fruit number, fruit length, fruit circumference, average fruit weight, and dependent variable Total yield. Results revealed significant differences in yields due to varied nitrogen doses. The correlation coefficient revealed that fresh fruit yield per plant was significantly highly and positively correlated with plant height (0.86), total number of fruits per plant (0.91), fruit circumference (0.98), fruit length (0.92), average fresh fruit weight (0.87), leaf number (0.87), and number of primary (0.93) and secondary branches (0.91). However, reproductive characteristics like first flowering (0.06) and fifty percent flowering (0.01) showed a very low correlation to the yield. Thus, based on current results, fruit length, fruit circumference, no of primary branches per plant, and fruit number per plant could be the most important yield component characters that might be selected for yield improvement.
