Uploaded by Dr. M. Sabesh
The Indian cotton crop is the most diverse in the world, both in terms of botanical status and fibre quality range. Three of the species of Gossypium contributing to the cottons of trade and industrial consumption viz., hirsutum, arboreum and herbaceum are commercially grown in the country. The fourth, G. barbadense which includes the highest quality of fibre with extra-long staple, figures as a parent in many of the hybrid cottons, which is a significant feature of Indian cotton scenario. A small area under G. barbadense variety Suvin is also currently grown in Tamil Nadu. Not Available |
