Abstract


Seed obtained from the five pickings was separately graded into bolder, Smaller and unsorted groups and evaluated for the quality Characters. It was observed that number of nodes por plant, sympodiol number and their length, leaf area. boll number and yield potential were influenced seeds of earlier pickings with bolder type. Similar trend was exhibited in respect of harvest index. Within the picking the bolder seed performed better than the rest of the seed sizes. The ginning per cent was not influenced by seod sizes obtained from various pickings. The necessity of sorting and selection of seeds particularly from earlier pickings for obtaining higher yield in Varalaxmi cotton hybrid is emphasised.
