The present study was carried out to know the performance and evaluation of chilli genotypes for different traits attributing for growth and yield in chilli at the Division of Vegetable Science and Molecular biology, ICAR-Central Institute of Temperate Horticulture Srinagar (CITH) during kharif 2018. The analysis of variance revealed significant differences among the genotypes. Among the genotypes used for investigation Bhut Jolokia showed highest plant height (94.06 cm), maximum fruit diameter (2.60 cm) and maximum average fruit weight (2.83 g). The genotype Kashi Anmol showed highest plant spread (63.86 cm), highest fruit length (13.80 cm), maximum number of fruits per plants (100.50), maximum fruit yield per plant and per hectare i.e., (750.10g and 277.60 q) respectively. VOBC-0289 recorded the maximum average fruit weight (15.03 g) and maximum number of seeds per fruit (139.46). Maximum number of primary branches per plants was found in IC-561635 (8.00), minimum number of days to 50% flowering was taken by genotype IC-561661 (44 days) and minimum days to first fruit set (38.36 days) was taken by genotype IC-561652, LVST-Red-1 recorded maximum pedicel length (5.00 cm).
