Determination of Yield and Fiber Quality Parameters of Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) Progeny Rows at F3:6 Generation Under Full and Deficit Irrigation Conditions

This study was conducted to determine the yield, yield components and fiber quality parameters in a single plant progeny rows at F3:6 generation under the full and deficit irrigation conditions. The experiment was conducted at Adnan Menderes University, Agriculture Faculty in full and deficit conditions.In the full irrigation e×periment, 76 single plants, and in the experiment of deficit irrigation 68 single plants were planted. In addition, planting system was the augmented randomized complete block experimental design by performing 4 replications by 70 cm of row spacing and 12 m of row length. Under deficit irrigation (% 50) genotypic variation was found to be significant for all investigated parameters and, under full irrigation (% 100) condition significant variation was detected for seed cotton yield, fiber length and fiber strength. Based on seed cotton yield and fiber quality parameters of single progeny rows, it was concluded that Carmen × Tamcot-22, Carmen × Nazilli-503, Nazilli-503 × DPL-90, BA-308 × Carmen single progeny rows are promising in the full irrigation conditions, and Nazilli-503 × Tamcot-22, Carmen × Nazilli-503, Nazilli-503 × ？ahin 2000, Carmen × Tamcot-22, BA-308 × Nazilli-503 was detected as promising hybrids in the deficit irrigation conditions
