Abstract Field screening of 22 multiple virus-resistant pepper breeding lines, along with 11 commercial cultivars of jalepeno, bell, pimiento, serrano, yellow, cayenne, chile, and cherry type peppers was conducted at the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station in Weslaco, TX. The lines were arranged in a randomized complete block with three replications using 3 m. single row plots with one plant every 30 cm. Fertilization and irrigation practices were standard for the region. Two applications of Pounce® at a rate of 17 ml in 26.5 liters of water were applied at 68 and 76 days after transplant to prevent excessively high PW densities. Ten terminal buds from two plants per plot were examined twice a week recording the number of PW adults and buds and pods with oviposition scars. The numbers of fallen buds and fruit with and without oviposition scars were also recorded. Plant phenology was examined by recording the number of buds, flower and fruit of each line once a week. Yield and fruit quality data were recorded after each of four harvests 68, 75, 87, and 95 days after transplant.
