Abstract

Although the wild species is of little value as a source of genes for improving lint length, it is useful as a parent for imparting fineness and strength of lint. The first attempt at utilisation of the wild species to improve the fineness of lint of G. arboreum was that of Afzal et al. (1945). The results of subsequent work showed the possibility of transferring the desirable expression to the cultivated types (Kalyanaraman and Santhanam, 1954; 1957; Kesava Iyengar et al., 1958 and Santhanam, 1958). The present study is aimed at an evaluation of the behaviour of the second back cross progeny of the hybrid G. arboreum x G. anomalum.
