Target sequencing reveals genetic diversity, population structure, core-SNP markers, and fruit shape-associated loci in pepper varieties

Table 1 Genetic diversity in fruit shape populations and across all varieties

Fruit shapes	Varieties size	PIC^a	He	Ho	MAF
Blocky-fruited	90	0.15 (4)^b	0.18 (4)	0.16 (4)	0.13 (4)
Long horn-fruited	113	0.31 (1)	0.39 (1)	0.36 (1)	0.30 (1)
Short horn-fruited	25	0.29 (2)	0.37 (2)	0.34 (2)	0.29 (2)
Linear-fruited	43	0.25 (3)	0.31 (3)	0.33 (3)	0.23 (3)
Total	271	0.31	0.40	0.28	0.31

^aFor each fruit population: polymorphism information content (PIC), expected heterozygosity (He), observed heterozygosity (Ho), and minor allele frequency (MAF)
^bThe numbers in parentheses refer to the numerical ranking of diversity in a descending order
