Effect of Removal of Bracts and Bagging the Flowers on Boll and Seed set in CBS 156 Hybrid Cotton

Abstract

With the parents of CBS 156 hybrid cotton viz.. Glandless Acala and SB 1085-8 stu- dies were conducted to find out the effect of removal of bracts and bagging the flowers on seed set. Removal of bracts significantly reduced the boll maturation period, number and weight of seeds per boll and 100-sued weight. However, there was no significant reduction in the percentage of boils set.
