Forecasting cotton yield in the southeastern United States using coupled global circulation models
We developed methods of forecasting cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. var. hirsutum) yields at a county level 3 mo before harvest for the states of Alabama and Georgia. Cotton yield historical records for 57 counties were obtained from NASS and detrended using a low-pass spectral filter. A Canonical Correlation Analysis regression-based model was annually recalibrated to incorporate the year-by-year ...

Comparative plant growth and development in two cotton rotations under irrigated and non-irrigated conditions
Incorporating perennial grasses such as bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Fluegge) to diversify the conventional two-crop rotation of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) and cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) prevalent in the U.S. Southeast (SE) is advocated. However, little is reported on growth and development for cotton grown in rotation with perennial grasses. Our objectives were to compare plant ...

Cotton Planting date: yield, seedling survival, and plant growth
New cultivars, changes in technology and production practices, and climate change may have altered the optimal planting time for cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) in the midsouthern United States. A field experiment was conducted from 2002 through 2005 on Gigger silt loam to define planting date (PD) effects on selected cotton cultivars. Six cultivars in 2002 (Deltapine DP555BR and Delta Pearl, ...

A comparison of three isolines of cotton differing in fiber color for yield, quality, and photosynthesis
Naturally colored cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) fibers (CCFs) are eco-friendly for the textile industry because they omit the dyeing process and reduce harmful effluent liquor. However, the low yield and quality of CCFs have greatly affected their development. Limited information is available on the reasons for the low yield and quality of CCFs. The aim of this 2-yr investigation was to compare ...
