In this study, it was aimed to compare the performances of 5 hybrid bell pepper cultivars developed within the scope of pepper cultivar breeding program in terms of fruit quality and yield characteristics in summer cultivation under open conditions in Konya. The first fruits were harvested 68 days after planting. Fruit length varied between 54.28 and 80.49 mm. Fruit diameter was found to be between 47.59-66.52 mm and wall thickness between 3.55-5.08 mm. Among the bell pepper genotypes, the average yield per plant was 933.4 g, with the highest 1496 g and E27 variety candidate with the lowest 678 g and P17 variety candidate. It was determined that the number of fruits per plant in hybrid pepper cultivar candidates varied between 14 and 22 on average. It is thought that these cultivar candidates can be grown in open field conditions in regions such as Konya with arid and semi-arid climates and will contribute to the country's agriculture.
