This book indicates the importance of heterosis for increasing cotton yield and fiber quality improvements. There was sufficient genetic variability between parent and generations. It was evident to find the yield superiority of F1 hybrid over parents and F2 generations. F1 hybrids showed an overall, significant and exploitable advantage of 30.1, 9.2 and 21.2 % for lint yield fiber length and strength, respectively. Significant improvement opportunities exist for fiber length and strength at 21.8 and 39.1 %, respectively without sacrificing current yield status of commercial cultivars. Heritab...
