Other claims from this paper (5)
- Association At Maricopa in 2002, the two lowest plant populations gave the greatest lint yields for ST4892BR and AG3601 (1708 and 1287 lb lint/A).
- Association At Maricopa in 2003, cotton yield did not vary significantly with population density, averaging 1526 lb lint/A.
- Association At Marana in 2003, yield showed a slight increasing trend with plant density, averaging 1385 lb lint/A at the three highest populations.
- Association Fiber micronaire decreased with increasing density in ST4892BR and AG3601 at Maricopa in 2002 and DP449BR in 2003.
- Association At Marana, the density effect on micronaire was not observed, possibly because plant populations there were lower.
