Blurb/Shorttext:
Earliness in cotton plant is a complex character as it is controlled by many genes. Yet it is highly desirable in the areas where cotton-wheat-cotton rotation is in practice because short duration cotton varieties vacate the fields for timely wheat sowing. Besides, it is beneficial for avoiding late season insect attack. This book deals with study of gene action involved in the inheritance of traits associated with earliness. Moreover, inheritance pattern of some yield contributing traits have also been discussed.
