42. CONCLUSION
 Polymorphism between genotypes is due to either a
nucleotide base change that alters the ability of the
primer to anneal to the DNA template within the
amplified fragment.
 All the primers cannot amplify all the verities of
chilies. Variation was seen as certain primers could
separate.
 Our study reflected the tremendous genetic diversity
available among the genotypes.
 The rich genetic diversity in which breeding efforts
depend can be utilized for current & future.
