Phenotypic variability of plant architecture, easy destemming, and yield for accelerated selection for mechanical harvestability in chile pepper

Abstract In recent years, chile pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) production in the US has shown a decline due to higher costs associated with manual harvesting and unavailability of skilled labor. Chile pepper breeding programs have incorporated mechanization as a long-term breeding objective alongside h...
