Abstract: Seven exotic chilli (Capsicum frutescens) cultivars, NARC-4, 9656-06, 9656-15, PBC-386, PBC-534, PBC-581 and Korean were evaluated for different yield parameters including number of fruits per plant, fruit weight per plant, single fruit weight, fruit size and yield per hectare. A potential line PBC-386 was found the highest yielding with 14.5 t ha-1 of fresh fruit. It was followed by PBC-534 and 9656-15 yielding 11.9 and 10.1 t ha-1, respectively while Korean seemed to be the poorest yielder with only 4.2 t ha-1 of fresh fruit.
