Evaluation of new cotton genotypes against Verticillium wilt (Verticillium dahlia Kleb)
Abstract
A study was carried out to determine the response of some new cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) lines to Verticillium wilt (VW) disease caused by Verticillium dahliae Kleb to facilitate the under natural infection. Cotton production faces a lot of choking setbacks especially when still in the field; VW has been noted to be one of the most destructive diseases worldwide. The study was conducted at Cotton Research Institute during the 2020/21 and 2021/22 growing seasons. The field trials were laid out in a Randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications where fourteen genotypes were used as plant material, nine new advanced cotton lines and five commercial cultivars. During the cotton growing seasons, foliar disease incidences and vascular browning were observed in addition to seed cotton yield. According to the results, all the cotton cultivars were susceptible to VW except for 562-00-9 which was tolerant and obtained high yields consistently over the two seasons. This variety can be used in the variety development programme to impart VW tolerance.
