Most of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) fibers produced in the world are white, in spite of the
lint and fiber of tetraploid cottons (G. barbadense), exhibiting various shades of green and …

With 1 figure and 8 tables Abstract The genetic effects and heterosis of the colour and quality
of brown fibres were analysed in this paper through the complete 5× 5 diallel crossing …

Although white is the most common color of fiber in Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.),
some lines display brown lint fibers, and others have green lint. Some cottons have white lint …

In a study conducted in the Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, University of
Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan during 2005-07 a complete diallel cross comprising five …

Although fiber traits of interspecific hybrids of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.× G. barbadense
L.) have been manipulated through choice of parent cultivar, the potential range of fiber trait …

Genetic variation available for the improvement of fiber properties is restricted in commercial
upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.). Resources for fiber improvement exist in G …

Crosses between Gossypium barbadense L and Gossypium hirsutum L.(Upland cotton)
have produced limited success in introgressing fiber quality genes into the latter …

In the present study, three types of coloured fibre cottons, ie white, brown and green, were
compared for their fibre quality and yield. The comparison of fibre quality suggested that …

Heterosis breeding is a potential tool for developing coloured cotton hybrids, having good
fibre yield and quality. The objective of the present study was to explore the extent of …

A broad range of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) germplasm resources exist with
characteristics useful for improving modern cotton cultivars. However, much of this …
