Abstract

Bell pepper cultivation in low-altitude regions of Indonesia holds significant promise because of increasing domestic and international demand. However, domestic production is not sufficient to meet market needs. This study investigates hydroponic cultivation as a potential solution to low-altitude agriculture. Conducted from November 2023 to January 2024 at the University of Bengkulu Greenhouse เว็บสล็อต | R4shub (10 meters above sea level), the research evaluated the performance of nine bell pepper cultivars using a single-factor completely randomized design (CRD) with three repetitions. The cultivars tested were Red Star F1, Cardinal Star, Hercules, Merah, Yellow Star F1, Golden Star F1, Polaris F1, Orange Bell F1, and Kuning. Results indicated that the Cardinal Star and Polaris F1 cultivars outperformed the others under low-altitude conditions, demonstrating superior growth and yield components. Cardinal Star exhibited the highest fruit weight per plant, whereas Polaris F1 had the highest weight per fruit or fruit size. Key word:  bell pepper, hydroponics, low altitude areas

Abstract

Cayenne pepper is a horticultural crop with high economic value, and its productivity can be improved through plant breeding programs. Genotypic and phenotypic variability, and heritability are important parameters for such programs. This study aimed of obtaining information on genotypic and phenotypic variability as well as heritability of generative traits, yield components, and the yield in 39 cayenne pepper genotypes. The research was conducted from May to October 2024 at the Experimental Farm, the University of Bengkulu. A Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) was used, involving 39 genotypes planted in three replications, with 20 plants per replication. The results showed broad genotypic variability was found in days to anthesis, days to first harvest, number of fruits per plant, fruit diameter, fruit length, pedicel length, and average fruit weight. Broad phenotypic variability was observed in all traits. High heritability was found in days to anthesis, fruit diameter, fruit length, and average fruit weight. These findings are highly valuable for determining effective selection strategies in plant breeding and the development of superior cultivars.
