In order to evaluate the performance of sixteen genotypes of Chilli for fruit yield and its component traits, the present experiment was laid under randomized complete block design with three replications at Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidayalaya (IGKV), Raipur during rabi season of 2016-17. Analysis of variance revealed that the genotypes differed significantly for all the characters namely, days to first flowering, days to 50 % flowering, plant height (cm), number of primary branches, stem girth (cm), days to first picking, fruit length (cm), fruit girth (cm), stalk length (cm), number of seeds per fruit, number of fruits per plant, fresh weight of fruits (gm), dry weight of fruits (gm), dry matter % of fruits, fruit yield per plant (gm), fruit yield per plot (kg), fruit yield per ha (q) indicating the existence of the enough amount of variability in the material studied. Mean performance of all the genotype for different characters was studied and the genotype namely, 2014/CHIVAR-9 was found to give highest total fruit yield plot-1. Fruit yield per plot ranged from 8 kg to 19.52 kg with an overall mean of 14.03 kg. The highest total fruit yield was recorded in genotype 2014/CHIVAR-9, which was statistically at par with the performance of Kashi Anmol-2 (18.50 Kg), 2014/CHIVAR-7(17.83 kg), 2014/CHIVAR-10 (16.99 kg) and 2016/CHIVAR-6 (15.9 kg). Genotype 2016/CHIVAR-5 (8 kg) was yielded minimum fruit yield per plot.
