BRS 293: A midseason high-yielding upland cotton cultivar for Brazilian savanna

Abstract

-Cotton cultivar BRS 293 is a midseason high-yield cultivar and has wide adaptation to the Brazilian savanna, yield stability, desirable resistance to main cotton diseases and good fiber quality. The cultivar BRS 293 meets growers' demands for competitive lint yield as well as fulfilling industrial textile requirements.

BRS 336: a high-quality fiber upland cotton cultivar for Brazilian savanna and semi-arid conditions

“…BRS Itaúba (a selection of the Australian cultivar CS 50) also has a good fiber quality and resistance to the main diseases that occur in Brazil. Hybrid combinations with cultivar Delta Opal (a high-yielding cotton cultivar with pedigree DP 5816 x Sicala 33) are used for the improvement of seed cotton yield, lint yield, seed index and index of production and earliness (Morello et al 2010).…”

BRS 335: a midseason high-yielding upland cotton cultivar for northeast brazilian savanna

“…Delta Opal (Deltapine 5816 x Sicala 33) is a high-yielding cotton cultivar with resistance to the main diseases occurring in Brazil. Hybrid combinations with cultivar Delta Opal are recommended for the improvement of seed cotton yield, lint yield, seed index and index of production and earliness (Morello et al 2010).…”

BRS 372 and BRS 416: high-yielding cotton cultivars with multiple disease resistance

“…In Brazil, much effort has been invested in developing new cotton cultivars (Morello et al 2010, Morello et al 2012, Morello et al 2015, Barroso et al 2017, Suassuna et al 2018, to ensure high lint yields and the competitiveness of Brazilian cotton on the international market. However, most of the released cultivars are RLS-susceptible.…”
