Summary

Effects of environmental temperature on boll maturation period of cotton and the genotype response, investigated in a 3-year field experiment, showed a negative correlation between period and mean temperature and revealed genotypic differences regarding degree of temperature influence and sensibility to temperature changes. The observed genotype × temperature interactions may help cotton breeders in establishing breeding centres and in creating desirable gene combinations for wider adaptability to temperature.
