I have some pepper plants that the leaves are turning yellow. We have had a significant amount of rain and think that is the cause, but can I do anything to help it, or will my plants be ok. They are actually a varity of pepper plants. Thanks for any help.

Your pepper plant is infected with Bacterial leaf spot(BLS). and the treatment is available in some of the plant nurseries. As such if it is the fruiting stage, You can use the yield but cannot save the seeds. The yield will be less. If it is the initial stages of the plant it is better to apply some kind of treatment.
