Effect of DeficitIrrigation on Some Agronomic Traits of Cotton (GossypiumhirsutumL.)Cultivars Differing in Maturity

Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 6

Abstract

This field trial was carried out on the Carmen (late-maturing) and Özbek (early-maturing) cotton cultivars in 2010 and 2011 at the Research and Application Farm of the Agriculture Faculty of Adnan Menderes University. The applications of water significantly affected raw cotton yield and various agronomic parameters as; number of bolls per plant, boll weight, number of fruit branches, single plant yield, 100-seed weight and lint percentage. The study was conducted according to a randomized complete block design was used with three replications and two factors. Irrigation treatments were designated as full irrigation level (IL-100, which received 100 % of the soil water depletion) and those that received 75 %, 50 % and 25 % of the amount received by treatment IL-100 on the same day. The highest yield was obtained from Carmen (late-maturing) under full-irrigation treatment. According to the research results, irrigation treatments significantly influenced the cotton yield and the agronomic components evaluated in this study.
