Abstract: The pungency of pepper(Capsicum spp.)is due to capsaicin,dihydrocapsaicin and other
capsaicinoid biosynthesis in glands on the placenta dissepiment of the fruit. This paper reviews the genetic
control and environmental effects on pungency,capsaicinoid biosynthesis pathway and evolution,QTL
analysis of capsaicinoid content and marker-assisted selection breeding on Pun1 and pAMT in Capsicum spp.

Key words: Capsicum, pungency, capsaicinoid, capsinoid, Pun1
