Abstract

Cotton still represents the most important crop and a main element in Egypt’s national economy. Pests infesting cotton affect the crop’s quality and yield. Pesticides are considered to be one of the major elements in protecting cotton production. Study effects of pesticides and their residues on the physical and chemical properties of fiber and seed of the long stable variety of Egyptian cotton Giza 86 and Giza 90 after the applications of the official spraying program of Ministry of Agricultural against cotton pest in Egypt. The results indicated that pesticide residues in Giza 86 fiber and seed, were found also significant decrease in fiber length, fineness, brightness (Rd%), and fiber strength but significant increase in fiber elongation and yellowness (+b) with insignificant differences between Giza 86 and Giza 90 seasons 2012 and 2013 in chemical properties were produced by the pesticides applications. The present results in showed significant decrease carbohydrate of season 2012 with significant increase in protein during the same season 2012 as well as insignificant variations between Giza 86 and Giza 90 varieties seasons of 2012 and 2013 in cottonseed constituents.
