Chilli is one of the important spices as well as vegetable crops of India and worldwide, which is predominantly grown as a rainfed crop in southern states of India, but now-a-days there is a drastic rise in temperature which affects the availability of water for irrigation. Chlorophyll plays a vital role in photosynthesis. But, they are highly thermosensitive in nature and degradation occurs when subjected to high temperature. So, for this changing environment there is anurgent need breed heat tolerant varieties. Chlorophyll stability index (CSI) is a function of temperature and is inversely related to the degree of stress conditions imposed on the plants. So the stability of chlorophyll pigments can be correlated with drought tolerance. So, CSI can be a rapid screening method of chilli genotypes for drought tolerance or susceptibility. We observed that, among genotypes used in the study M106 showed higher mean CSI value of 88.41 per cent followed by F02 (86.56%) and M08 showed least CSI value of 42.47 per cent. We can deduce that,M 106 can be used infuture breeding programmes for evolving drought tolerant chilli varieties, so that we can bring more acreage under chilli cultivation under rain fed cultivation in India.Keywords

Anthracnose caused by complex of Colletotrichum species is an economically important disease of chilli. The study involved 132 genotypes grown under field conditions. Among the genotypes evaluated, fifteen genotypes were moderately resistant to anthracnose with fairly high yield. In the order of merit, the genotypes were CA 177 (10.74%), Paramakudi 1 (16.64%), F 507 (17.17%), Bird’s eye chilli (17.85%), Kadaladi 1 (19.70%), Ramnad local (20.64%), CO 1 (20.82%), TA/CA/ 10 (21.56%), CA 166 (21.94%), CA 188 (22.29%), Paramakudi 2 (22.45%), CA 13/6 (23.42%), Chilli CO hybrid 1 (24.36%), IC 342465 (24.68%) and CA 165 (25.70%). whereas, 40 genotypes were susceptible with PDI ranging from 26.30 to 50.69 per cent and majority of the genotypes (77nos) were found to be highly susceptible to anthracnose with per cent disease index ranging from 51.81 to 96.42 per cent. The moderately resistant genotypes identified in the present investigation will serve as donors or source of resistance for anthracnose.Keywords
