Abstract

The present investigation was carried out during the 2023 cropping season at the Agriculture Research Cotton Institute (A.R.C.), Tandojam, to assess the significant differences among cotton genotypes for early maturity, yield, and fiber-related traits in upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.). Multiple cotton genotypes, including a commercial check variety, were evaluated for important agronomic and fiber characteristics such as plant height, monopodial and sympodial branches per plant, number of bolls per plant, boll weight, seed cotton yield, lint weight, and ginning out turn (GOT). Analysis of variance revealed highly significant differences (P
