compare the capsicum annum and capsicum fruitsence
Answers
Answer:
C. annuum and C. frutescens seems to be different species as in the later the calyx teeth are absent. Moreover, the later species bears more than 1 flower in each node but the former species bears single flower per node, in general. The fruit size of C. frutescens is smaller than that of C. annuum, irrespective of the varieties.
Answer:
Capsicum frutescens plants have smooth, medium-sized, elliptical leaves, and slender branches which are 30–120 cm long. The plants attain their full size in a hot climate. A chili plant can produce about 120 pods of intermediate pungency in a season, with Scoville ratings of between 30,000 and 60,000 units. Pods are erect, and exhibit less variation in color, shape, and size than do
Capsicum annuum, C. chinense, and C. baccatum. The phenomenon is probably due to lack of enthusiasm for breeding Capsicum frutescens varieties.
