Abstract: Hot pepper productivity in coastal areas tends to be lower than that of in common arable areas. The main problem is salinity stress which hampers growth and suppresses yield. The use of tolerant genotypes is one of the most prospective approaches to overcome the low productivity of coastal areas. This study aims at evaluating several hot pepper genotypes against salinity stress. Five hot pepper genotypes were grown in salinity stress nutrient solutions with sand media arranged in a 3x5 factorial with a Completely Randomized Design in 3 replications. The first factor was the level of NaCl-stressing concentration consisting of 0 (control), 3750, and 7500 ppm NaCl; and the second factor was the hot pepper genotype consisting of five genotypes namely ‘PBC396’, ‘Bogota’, ‘Ferosa’, ‘Kopay’ and ‘Keriting Hitam’. The results showed that the interaction between the NaCl concentration and the hot pepper genotypes had a significant effect on the canopy area. The ‘Keriting Hitam’ genotype showed a tolerant response to salinity stress at a concentration of 3750 ppm, while the ‘PBC 396’ genotype was relatively tolerant to salinity at a concentration of 7500 ppm. NaCl concentration level of 7500 ppm can inhibit the growth and yield of hot pepper up to 80%.
