Shelf life of pepper

Capsicum annuum L.

The shelf life of pepper fruits is an important economically valuable trait that determines their ability to maintain marketability after harvest. This indicator directly depends on agrotechnical factors, in particular, the level of calcium nutrition, which strengthens the cell walls of the fruits.

In the reference 290 varieties crop Bell pepper, where this is mentioned in the description.

The ability of pepper fruits to withstand long-term storage and transportation is assessed as a key breeding criterion. High shelf life rates allow for a significant extension of the product sales period on the market, ensuring the fruits' resistance to mechanical impact during storage.

The most important factor influencing fruit storability is the calcium nutrition of plants during the growing season. Adequate calcium supply to the crop contributes to the strengthening of cell walls, which makes the fruit structure denser and less susceptible to damage.

In modern breeding practice and the state variety testing system, the shelf life of pepper is considered a qualitative characteristic evaluated by an expert method. Unlike other biochemical parameters, there are no standardized quantitative units of measurement for shelf life.
