ABSTRACT
The present study investigates the seed cotton yield and fibre qualities in resistant and susceptible recombinant inbred lines of cotton. The seed cotton yield per hectare in protected condition was differed significantly compared to unprotected condition. The paired t test revealed that there was a statistically significant improvement in seed cotton yield per hectare in protected condition in both resistant and susceptible recombinant inbred lines. The fibre quality parameters like fibre length, fibre strength, fibre fineness and uniformity ratio were also more in resistant lines compared to susceptible recombinant inbred lines.
Keywords: cotton, fibre quality, seed cotton, recombinant inbred lines (RILs)
