中文摘要：

该文对国内外近年来有关辣椒辣味、颜色、抗病和雄性不育等重要农艺性状相关基因的研究进展进行了概述,指出了目前研究中存在的不足之处及今后研究方向,并介绍了辣椒重要农艺性状相关基因发掘的常规方法,以及随着辣椒基因组测序的完成和第二代测序技术的应用,基因发掘的新技术及其在辣椒基因发掘中的应用及前景。

英文摘要：

The article describes the research progress of genes related with important agronomic characters in pepper（Capsicumspp.）,including pungency,color,disease resistance and male sterility.The classical approaches,and new technologies associated with next-generation sequencing for gene isolation and cloning are presented.Deficiencies and limitations of the present study are pointed out,and the prospect for future research in accompaniment with the completeness of the pepper genomic sequencing project is discussed.
