The Capsicum Genome

Part of the book series: Compendium of Plant Genomes ((CPG))

Abstract

Capsicum is one of the most important vegetable crops of the family Solanaceae and is widely used as spice due to its pungent nature. Besides, Capsicum fruit rich in metabolites and vitamins; and also has anticancerous property, which further increases the importance of this crop. However, Capsicum crop is highly affected by abiotic/biotic stresses such as drought, heat, cold, salinity, and pathogens. To overcome these stresses, plants adapted several mechanisms such as the production of osmoprotectant, proline, galactinol and raffinose, and the reduction of reactive oxygen species. Autophagy also plays an important role to provide tolerance against stresses through degradation of toxins. Among the others, transcription factors and plasma membrane intrinsic proteins, and plant endophytes are found to be involved in regulating stress tolerance mechanism. Furthermore, in Capsicum genome, a number of genes and quantitative trait loci (QTLs) involved in stress tolerance mechanism have been identified. In this chapter, a detail compilation of important molecular mechanisms and associated genes/QTLs involved toward imparting abiotic and biotic stress tolerance in Capsicum genome is made.
