Abstract


An improved short duration (135 days) cotton variety SVPR.1 superior to MCU.7 in yield, spinning properties and tolerance to major pests has been released for general cultivation in summer imigated/rice fallow tracts of Tamil Nadu. This strain was developed by crossing MCU.7 x AC.129/2. SVPR.1 is a medium staple cotton with an average yield of 1542 kg/ha which is 34.9 per cent more than MCU.7.
