RE:  I was wondering if the concept had
invaded the world of capsicums?

Only since the beginning of recorded chile history! :-)  That's why the
most common way of naming a chile is for the geographic region in which
it was grown:  Anaheim, New Mexican, Chimayo, Sandia, Barker, Cochiti,
Tabasco, Jalapeno, Cayenne, ad infinitum.

Chiles are well known for their ability to form a 'land race'.  Chiles
grown in your yard will in the space of only a few generations have
characteristics that are unique from ones grown in mine though we start
with the same seed.  One of their best methods for adapting and
surviving.
