Cayenne (sometimes inappropriately labelled as 'cayenne pepper' or `red pepper') is an extremely pungent ground spice prepared by blending the small pungent chillies grown in East Africa, Japan, India, Mexico, Louisiana and some other areas, but not from Cayenne (French Guiana). Red pepper is sometimes regarded as identical with cayenne, but is, nevertheless, milder, being prepared mainly from the larger-fruited, moderately pungent capsicums from Turkey and some of the southern states of the USA.
Crushed red pepper (`pepperone rosso and pizza pepper') is prepared from many hot capsicum varieties and is used in sausage meat, spaghetti and pizza. Chili pepper is a blend of Mexican and Californian capsicums, and chili powder is a mixture containing ground chili pepper, oregano, cumin, garlic powder and other spices. They are not always as hot as commonly believed since some preparations include the milder types of C. annuum.
Lines of interspecific hybrids were obtained showing a high heterosis effect both in their viability and resistance, and in their earliness and productivity. The species C. annuum and C. pendulum did not cross with C. pubescens, although a separate cross- hybridization between C. annuum and C. pubescens could be achieved provided a solution of vitamins B and B6 was used.
The oleoresins of chillies and capsicums are prepared mainly by the food industries in North America and Western Europe. By contrast, a substantial amount of paprika oleoresin is prepared.,in the major growing areas (Spain and Eastern Europe), in additicin to extraction being carried out in the principal paprika-importing countriesin the Western hemisphere. The three types of oleoresins find similar applications to the ground products in the preparation of' processed foods. Chillie oleoresin (more commonly known as 'African capsicum oleoresin') is also incorporated into a number of pharmaceutical formulations.
The dried forms of the fruits of Capsicum species which are traded fall into three groups: the highly pungent 'chillies% the moderately to mildly pungent `capsicums'; and paprika, which may be sweet or mildly pungent. Paprika is always a ground product, whereas chillies and capsicums arc traded in the whole or ground forms. All three types are also extracted with solvents to prepare their oleoresins; and blends of ground chillies and capsicums are marketed as cayenne and red pepper or mixed with other spices for the preparation of 'chili powder'. Related products include the larger-fruited, sweet or mildly pungent varieties of C. annuum used in the fresh state as vegetables or in preserves.
The cosmopolitan corn earworm, Heliothis artnigera (Hubn.), and the fall army worm, Laphygma frugiperda S. & A., have been reported attacking capsicums in some areas. They have a large number of alternate hosts.
