Pepper(Capsicum annuum L.)is one of the important vegetable crops in the world,with obvious heterosis.Using the male sterile line to produce hybrids can effectively replace manual emasculation,thereby simplifying the seed production process and reducing production costs.The research on male infertility in pepper is a rapidly developing field.We reviewed the important progress in the types,characteristics and cytological features of male infertility,the molecular mechanism of genic male sterile and cytoplasm male sterility in pepper.Further,the problems and development directions of male infertility in pepper were discussed and prospected,aiming to provide a theoretical reference for the three-line system of hybrid seed production for pepper.
