Abstract

Among the options for improving Capsicum annuum L., fertilization increases nutrient availability. The objective was to evaluate eight bell pepper genotypes with two study factors: 1) greenhouse, 2) open field. The fertilization sources applied as treatments were: 1) solarized manure, 2) vermicompost, 3) poultry manure, and a control with Steiner solutions. The results show a significant difference between genotypes and fertilizers, mainly expressed in growth. Fruit weight for genotype 1 with cow manure or poultry manure, genotype 5 with cow manure or vermicompost and genotype 6 with chicken manure showed the best interactions with 81.5, 118.96, 75.63, 82.7 and 81.49 g. Therefore, there was a significant difference in the response of the genes involved in the control of the characteristics to fertilizers.
