Distance of internode had a broad variation that ranges from 105.5 (cm) in Neda to 78.25 (cm) in Storm (Table 3).
Ramirez et al. [26] showed that multiple fruiting was associated with high leaf area. On the other hand, line with
highest stem length had a greater proportion of dry weight into leaves, stems and roots and number of fruit per plant.
Line Calypso had produced the same amount of total dry weight and fruit weight as the line with the highest amount
of these traits, in spite of having a smaller leaf area that can be related to increase leaf photosynthetic rates.
The highest and the lowest genetic variation (CV) (%) were observed for VP and LW, respectively. The highest and
the least value for phenotypic variation was observed to VP and LL, respectively (Table 3). Small difference
between phenotypic and genetic coefficient of variations for most of the studied traits indicated that most of the
observed variation was compromised from genetic factors.
