Abstract
Four pepper cultivars and their hybrids included reciprocals were evaluated in two experimental seasons ( 2003 and 2004 ) to the estimates of heterosis , combining ability , types of genetic variations and heritability for some economic characters . The results showed that , heterosis was detected for all the studied traits in both seasons , and the highest values of heterosis were recorded for early yield , total yield and quality traits , while flowering date and fruit shape traits gave a negative and significant estimates of heterosis, however flowering date as an exception showed heterosis, since it had negative value from both mid and better parent . General combining ability (G.C.A ) was significant for all the studied traits and was the more important for all traits except for flowering date , early yield and total soluble solids (T.S.S.) ,since, specific combining ability was the large component in inheritance these traits . Both additive and non-additive gene effects were involved in the inheritance of all the studied traits , the additive gene effects were more important than the non-additive ones in the genetic mechanism for the all traits except for flowering date , early yield and total soluble solids (T.S.S.) , the dominance genetic variance play the main role in inheritance of these traits . The presence of large amounts of additive gene variance indicated that selection for improving quantitative traits would be possible in the segregating generations . Moderate to high heritability estimates were observed for all traits in both seasons and fruit characteristics and vitamin C gave the highest estimates of heritability .
