Abstract:
... water shortage is the greatest significant reason controlling crop yield that harmfully affects fruit production, boll shedding, lint yield and fiber properties quality in cotton plants. Objectives: this study was carried out at Sakha Agricultural Research Station, Kafr El-Sheikh, Agric. Res. Center, Egypt, during 2014 and 2015 growing seasons. A study was undertaken in cotton (G. barbadense L.) t ...

Abstract:
... Relationships between yield components and lint yield are complicated because of interrelationships among them. Traditionally, the exploration of these interrelationships was analyzed by path coefficients which requires a priori knowledge of the cause and effect relationships. Commonality analysis is a method of multiple regression to dissect the total effects of yield components to yield into dir ...

Abstract:
... Novel intra-boll yield component traits and fiber quality indices have been used by breeders to select suitable Gossypium hirsutum L. lines, but there is little research on how these traits change during cultivation practices, especially fertilizer application. We hypothesized that these novel traits have obvious responses to phosphorus (P) fertilizer, which would explain the variation in yield an ...

Abstract:
... The Argentinian cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) breeding program was established in 1923 and since then it has released more than 40 commercial cultivars of cotton and numerous germplasm lines. Genetic progress studies have been used to evaluate the historical enhancement of different traits and to provide insights into possible improvements in future cultivars. In this context, the present study a ...

Abstract:
... Nitrogen can be critical in determining fiber yield and quality in cotton. Major purpose of this 3-years (2017, 2018, and 2019) study in Faizabad-Iran was to investigate the effect of nitrogen rates, excess on the need for maximum yield and its interaction with environment on fiber quality of bolls with different spatial and temporal distribution in cotton canopy. Field experiment was a split-plot ...
... Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) yield is decreased under low radiation, but there are few reports on possible interactions of N fertilizer application and light limitation on cotton production. The objective of this work was to evaluate growth, yield components, and boll distribution in cotton as affected by N rates under light restriction. Three experiments were conducted for two years in Central ...

Abstract:
... This study aimed to simulate the spatiotemporal variation in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) growth and lint yield using a remote sensing-integrated crop model (RSCM) for cotton. The developed modeling scheme incorporated proximal sensing data and satellite imagery. We formulated this model and evaluated its accuracy using field datasets obtained in Lamesa in 1999, Halfway in 2002 and 2004, and Lub ...

... To generate high-yielding cultivars with favorable fiber quality traits, cotton breeders can use information about combining ability and gene activity within a population to locate elite parents and potential F1 crosses. To this end, in the current study, twelve cotton parents (eight genotypes as female parents and four testers) and their F1 crosses obtained utilizing the linex tester mating desig ...
... The use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to identify the number and area of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) bolls in a field plot can serve as an important high‐throughput phenotyping strategy for predicting seedcotton yield. The objectives of this study were to determine if the prediction of seedcotton yield using a UAV could be improved in skip‐row spacing versus solid‐row spacing and if a geno ...
... Cotton is an important agro-industrial crop across the globe. Improving the fiber quality and yield potential of cotton are major commercial targets for cotton breeders. The cotton lint yield is computed by multiplying three fundamental yield constituents: average boll weight, boll number per unit ground area, and lint percentage. The cotton species Gossypium arboreum exhibits a wide range of desi ...

Abstract:
... Drought negatively affects cotton growth and yield, whereas excessive irrigation can limit yield through excessive vegetative growth and poor fruit retention. Mepiquat chloride (MC) application limits plant height, improves fruit retention and hastens maturity in responsive cultivars. Thus, the objective of this study was to address the effects of cultivar, irrigation, and MC strategy on cotton gr ...

In the arid region of Northwest China, exploring the feasibility of using non-film deep drip irrigation (DDI) instead of film drip irrigation to solve the problem of residual film pollution is an urgent task. Therefore, in this study, we hypothesized that efficient and clean production can be achieved by optimizing the irrigation amount of non-film cotton, thus improving the canopy environment and ...

Abstract:
... Planting cotton after harvest of winter wheat may be an alternative to relay intercropping that reduces labor and material inputs under a double cropping system of wheat–cotton in China. However, it is unclear whether lint yield with single dose application of reduced N at early flowering will increase N use efficiency without lint yield reduction in such a system. In a two-year field study, cotto ...

Abstract:
... The Texas High Plains (THP) is in a transition phase of producing crops with a diminishing supply of irrigation-water from the Ogallala aquifer to dryland production schemes. This shift is driven by the fact that the depth to the water table of the Ogallala aquifer continues to increase. Dryland cotton production systems are prevalent in the southern counties of the THP and our purpose was to use ...

Abstract:
... Machine learning approaches have been widely used for crop yield modelling and yield forecasting but there has been limited application to understanding site-specific yield constraints. Crop yield is driven by a complex interaction of spatial and temporal variables, which makes it challenging to define the exact cause of observed spatial yield variability explicitly. This makes it difficult to des ...
