Comparing the Last Effective Boll Populations in UNR and Conventional Cotton
نویسندگان
چکیده
Identification of the last effective boll population allows informed decisions for termination of insecticide and application of harvest aids. However, the current COTMAN cutout reference (i.e., NAWF=5) indicates physiological cutout (Oosterhuis et al., 1999) may need to be changed for ultra-narrow-row (UNR) cotton. This study is part of a multi-state project the overall objective of which is to determine the main-stem node number of the last effective boll population in UNR cotton as grown in a range of typical field environments, compared to wide-row cotton in those environments. This report describes the study conducted in northeast Arkansas in 2002.

Determining environment – associated alterations in grain yield is important in yield assessment under drought stress. Therefore this study was carried out to determine the correlation coefficients and direct and indirect effects of effective components on yield in four drought - tolerant and susceptible cotton cultivars. Cotton cultivars were considered as sub plots and 3 levels of irrigation ...
متن کاملEffects of routine late-season field operations on numbers of boll weevils (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) captured in large-capacity pheromone traps.
Flat and cylindrical adhesive boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis grandis Boheman (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), pheromone traps captured significantly more (P < or = 0.05) boll weevils than the Hercon (Hercon Environmental, Emigsville, PA) trap during the late cotton-growing season, and larger adhesive areas were associated with higher captures; a flat plywood board collected the most boll weevils b...
متن کاملInfluence of Potassium Foliar Application on Cotton Yield (Gossypium barbadense L.) under Saline Condition
There is a lack of sufficient information on cotton responses to time and amount of foliar application of potassium (K) under salt stress environment, The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of potassium (as Solupotasse 50% K2O and 18% S) rate and application time on yield and yield components of cotton under saline field condition. A factorial experiment based on randomized ...
متن کاملThe Effects of Drought Stress on Improved Cotton Varieties in Golesatn Province of Iran
Drought stress is one of the most important abiotic stresses influencing performance of crop plants. Therefore, the identification or development of tolerant genotypes is of high importance for incorporating in cotton production. In this study to evaluate the effect of drought stress on some cotton traits, 5 improved cotton varieties were studied in a split plot design with three replications i...
