Abstract
This article discusses the damage caused by pests to agricultural crops, including cotton, the importance of their control, the advantages of using modern biotechnological methods in the development of new pest-resistant varieties and foreign experience in this field, as well as preliminary research in this case was also briefly illuminated.
Highlights
The Government of the Republic of Uzbekistan has studied the requirements for cotton varieties on the ground to create new varieties of fast-ripening, high-yielding and highquality varieties, as well as varieties subject to water scarcity, soil salinity, high temperatures, heat, diseases and pests and resistant to various other extreme factors
In the early stages of cotton development, pests such as aphids, thrips, caterpillars and spiders cause damage, while in the later stages, various worm infestations lead to a decrease in cotton yield and fiber quality [3, 6]
In the marker-based selection laboratory of the Center for Genomics and Bioinformatics of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan, a number of studies are being conducted on the creation of cotton-resistant samples of sucking pests [3, 8]
Summary
The Government of the Republic of Uzbekistan has studied the requirements for cotton varieties on the ground to create new varieties of fast-ripening, high-yielding and highquality varieties, as well as varieties subject to water scarcity, soil salinity, high temperatures, heat, diseases and pests and resistant to various other extreme factors. In India, $ 660 million worth of pesticides are used annually on all agricultural crops, about half of which is used only for cotton Solving such economic and social problems is one of the main tasks facing genetic, molecular-genetic, and selection scientists [5, 6, 9]. In the marker-based selection laboratory of the Center for Genomics and Bioinformatics of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan, a number of studies are being conducted on the creation of cotton-resistant samples of sucking pests [3, 8]
