| Abstract: Field experiment was carried out during 2012-2013 at Almusaib- technical college. The objectives were to obtain single crosses using (kempthorne and Curnow method,1961) between eight varieties (ENGELY, CHRIB-AM539, MONTANA, IK378, COTROR, DEER, LASHAT, GOURD26 ) were crossed in all possible combinations during the season of 2012. The traits were tested during 2013 using Random complet block Design with three replications. Significant differences were found among all traits studies. bools, number. bool wieght and lint yield were showed highly significant positive genetic and phenotypic correlations with yield of cotton/plant correlations . Path coefficient analysis showed that no. of open bools/plant and average of bool weight with yield of cotton/plant were gave highest positive direct effect So we can conclude that we should continue in breeding program for advance generations to select the best segregations from these hybrids according to lint yield per plant and no. of open bools/plant as a selection criteria to improve yield of cotton | ||
