Abstract

Sowing Date influences cotton leaf curl disease (CLCuD) incidence and productivity of non-Bt cotton cultivars

Highlights

  • Cotton crop a day is facing some seriousCotton is an important cash crop of Pakistan threats which altogether have forced the and is a significant source of foreign scientists to standardize the production exchange earnings

  • In Pakistan, cotton is meet the international standards at the same grown both for its fiber and extraction of the time

  • Better seed cotton yield in early sowing could be owing to timely availability of growth resources and less incidence of cotton leaf curl disease (CLCuD) (Table 4 & 5)

Summary

Introduction

Cotton crop a day is facing some seriousCotton is an important cash crop of Pakistan threats which altogether have forced the and is a significant source of foreign scientists to standardize the production exchange earnings. Interactive effect of cultivars and sowing dates revealed significant variation with an overall increase in boll weight as the sowing was delayed in year 1 while boll weight could not vary significantly during growing season of year 2 (Table 3). Higher bolls per plant in year 2 than the growing season of year 1 could be owing to differences in genetic potential of cultivars and variation in environmental conditions.
