SANTIAGO LOPEZ, Ulises; RAMIREZ MERAZ, Moisés  and  MENDEZ AGUILAR, Reinaldo. HAP14F: hybrid of ancho poblano pepper for the Altiplano de México. Rev. Mex. Cienc. Agríc [online]. 2018, vol.9, n.2, pp.481-485. ISSN 2007-0934.  https://doi.org/10.29312/remexca.v9i2.1088.

In Mexico, the poblano pepper has great gastronomic, economic and social importance because it is a basic ingredient of traditional dishes. Obtaining low yields in the producing areas, mainly in the Altiplano de México, is due to the high use of creole seeds. To mitigate the aforementioned problem, INIFAP developed the HAP14F wide pepper poblano hybrid, which is an early cycle because it presents flowering and ripening at 39 and 118 days after transplantation (DDT), respectively. It produces fruits of intermediate green color in an immature state that turn a dark red color with a strong brilliance in a mature state. In open-pit evaluations, this hybrid had an average yield of 3.7 t ha-1 of dried or dehydrated chili and in green fruit it reached 23.1 t ha-1. For the aforementioned, HAP14F is considered a good alternative for the Altiplano de México.
