Abstract

Synopsis Substantial amounts of genotypic variance were observed for eight yield and fiber traits. Progeny × environment and plot error variances were relatively small. Lint yield was highly positively correlated with lint percentage, and there was a strong negative relationship between these two traits and lint strength.
