Physio-chemical properties of hybrid chilies (Capsicum annuum L.), parental lines and commercial varieties were evaluated in three experiments and showed significant differences among them. Heterosis, and heterobeltiosis were studied in hybrids while, combining abilities were investigated in maintainers and restorers. Positive statistical differences in the general combining ability of the maintainer lines for vitamin C, capsaicin and Hue were observed and general combining ability indicated that, CA1286 and CA1303, were good maintainers for the improvement of capsaicin and vitamin C. The other maintainers;-, CA1441 and CA1442, are good for the improvement of L* and Chroma. The maintainer, CA1441, was better than CA1442 for capsaicin content,- while the maintainer, CA1442, was better than CA1441 for vitamin C. Positivity and statistically significant differences among the restorers were  observed  for vitamin C, capsaicin, Hue and Chroma  and  the lines;-, CA 1447, CA 1448, CA 1449, CA 1450 and CA 1451, were useful for the improvement of these  physio-chemical properties of chilies.

Chili is one of the spices that are consumed by many Indonesians. It has several vitamins, one of which isvitamin C and ß-carotene is a pro-vitamin A which plays an important role in the formation of vitamin A. The studywas conducted in August 2018 and sampling from the regions Toraja and Malino. This study aims to determine thelevels of vitamin C in several types of chilli obtained by using iodine titration method and the levels of ß-caroteneby spectrophotometric method at a wavelength of 460-480 nm. The chili sample was first measuredmorphologically, weighed by base and dry weight and its water content. The test results showed vitamin C levels ofPepper Katokon Toraja Capsicum annuum L. Var. Sinensis is tested with seeds (0.129% / 10 g) and seedless(0.182% / 10 g). Large Chili Capsicum annuum L. Var. Abreviatum Fingerhuth was tested with seeds (0.220% / 10g) and seedless (0.223% / 10 g). Curly Chili Capsicum annuum L. Var. Longum sendt was tested with seeds(0.537% / 10 g) and seedless (0.592% / 10 g). Test results showed the levels of β-carotene Pepper Katokon TorajaCapsicum annuum L. Var. sinensis were tested with seeds (5.888mg / kg) and seedless (6.073mg / kg). Large ChiliCapsicum annuum L. Var. Abreviatum Fingerhuth was tested with seeds (5.529mg / kg) and seedless (6.338mg /kg). Curly Chili Capsicum annuum L. Var. Longum sendt was tested with seeds (6.655mg / kg) and seedless(6.942mg / kg). Conclusion The highest content of vitamin C and ß-carotene was found in Curly Chili Capsicumannuum L. Var. Longum sendt without seeds.

Pemanenan paprika dapat dibagi menjadi dua golongan, yaitu panen buah matang hijau dan panen buah matang berwarna (merah atau kuning) sesuai dengan permintaan pasar dan harga di pasaran. Paprika tergolong komoditi yang mudah rusak (very perishable), baik sesudah panen, maupun dalam penyimpanan. Secara umum paprika memiliki masa simpan yang pendek yaitu 5-7 hari. Metode yang dilakukan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode eksperimen dengan menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) yang terdiri dari dua perlakukan yaitu beberapa taraf konsentrasi kitosan (0%, 1%, 1,5%, 2% dan 2,5%) dan dua tingkat kematangan paprika (hijau dan merah) dan diulang 3 kali. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa 1).Pemberian Kitosan pada tingkat kematangan yang berbeda memberikan pengaruh nyata terhadap kualitas paprika (Capsicum annuum L. var Grossum) kultivar Edison,yaitu dapat mempertahankan kadar vitamin C; 2). Pengaruh pemberian kitosan pada paprika kondisi matang hijau yang paling baik terjadi pada konsentrasi 2%, yaitu terbukti dapat menghasilkan kadar vitamin C sebanyak 171, 493 mg. Sedangkan pada paprika kondisi matang merah pengaruh pemberian kitosan yang paling baik terjadi pada konsentrasi 1,5%, yaitu terbukti dapat menghasilkan kadar vitamin C sebanyak 188, 643 mg dan hasil ini tidak berbeda nyata dengan pemberian kitosan konsentrasi 2% dan 2,5%.
