Intraspecific hybrids between Capsicum annuum varieties OS/UN/60 and “Tatasi” could not set fruits without artificial pollination Meiosis in FI was not appreciably different from any of the parent varieties. Lack of self fruit set was not therefore, entirely attributable to low viable pollen production, but was also due to the pattern of arrangement of the reproductive organs.
