This book contains complete information on Capsicum genetic
resources, diversity, evolution, history and advances in capsicum
improvement from classical breeding to whole genome sequencing,
genomics, databases and its impact on next generation pepper
breeding. Capsicum is one of the most important Solanaceae crops
grown worldwide as vegetables and spices. Due to its high economic
value and to meet the demands of enormous population growth amid
biotic and abiotic stresses, there has been an ongoing breeding
program utilizing available genetic resources with desired traits
to increase the sustainable productivity of this crop for several
decades. However, the precision breeding of this crop for desired
traits only started with the advent of molecular markers. The
recent advances in high-throughput genome sequencing technologies
helped in the quick decoding of transcriptome, epigenome, nuclear
and organeller genomes, thereby enhancing our understanding of the
structure and function of the Capsicum genome, and helping in
genomics assisted breeding. These advanced technologies coupled
with conventional mapping have greatly contributed towards
dissection and manipulation of economically important traits more
precisely and made less time consuming.
