M. GLASS, C. D. MONKS, C. H. BURMESTER, AND D. I. BRANSBY INTRODUCTION The Alabama Cotton Variety Test is a continuing evaluation of available cotton varieties from private companies and state agricultural experiment stations. Breeding lines that are likely to be released as varieties are also tested. Tests are conducted on units of the Alabama Agricultural Experiment Station by Experiment Station personnel. Cultural practices are those generally recommended by the Auburn University Extension System to producers. Data is reported on an irrigated test at both Belle Mina and Shorter. No other tests received scheduled supplemental irrigation. Every effort is made to test the varieties and present the results in an unbiased manner. EXPERIMENTAL CONDITIONS Tests were split into early season and full season varieties. Comparative basis for early season varieties were Deltapine DP 5409 and Suregrow 125; full season comparative varieties were Deltapine Acala 90 and Suregrow 1001. The maturity category for each variety was chosen by the company or cooperator. Plot size was two rows at Prattville, Headland, Belle Mina, Shorter, and Fairhope, and one row at Monroeville. A randomized complete block experimental design with four replications was used in all tests. Row length varied at different locations from 20 to 120 feet. At most locations, excess rainfall and cool spring temperatures affected yield. At E.V. Smith, Shorter, full season trial yields are not reported. This was due to inadequate site drainage and yields were not reflective of varietal capabilities. At Monroeville, yields were greatly reduced due to drought conditions. At Fairhope, yields may have been reduced due to the high winds and heavy rainfall of Hurricane Danny in July. EXPLANATION OF DATA Harvest of Seed Cotton Tests at Belle Mina, Shorter, Prattville, Headland, and Fairhope were harvested by a mechanical spindle picker. The test at Monroeville was harvested by hand. Average seed cotton yield was determined for each variety at each location. Lint Percentage Seed cotton samples from each variety were ginned on a 10-saw gin. Lint percentage was calculated by dividing weight of lint by seed cotton weight. Yield of Lint Lint yield was determined by multiplying the lint percentage by seed cotton yield. Fiber Properties Fiber qualities of all varieties were measured by the Auburn University Textile Engineering Fiber Physical Testing Laboratory using High Volume Instrumentation (HVI). Data are reported on a single composite sample of each variety from all locations including the regional tests at Shorter and Belle Mina. Leng. This is the fiber length measured with the HVI instrument. This measurement of length is similar to the classer's staple. Strength. This is a measure of breaking strength of a standard fiber bundle with the holding jaws separated by 1/8-inch. "Tex" is a size measurement of the fiber bundle and the data given are the force in grams needed to break this bundle. Elongation. A measure of the percentage stretch before the fibers break.. Micronaire. This measures the fineness of the cotton fibers. The smaller the micronaire reading, the finer and/or more immature the fibers. Glass is a Research Assistant, Monks is an Extension Cotton and Soybean Specialist, Burmester is an Extension Agronomist, and Bransby is a Professor in the Auburn University Department of Agronomy and Soils. 1997 ALABAMA COTTON VARIETY REPORT 3 Earliness Earliness is reported as the percentage of the total yield harvested at the first picking where more than one harvest was made. Fusarium Wilt Reaction of varieties to Fusarium oxysporum f. vasinfectum (Fusarium wilt) was evaluated at the Plant Breeding Unit, Tallassee. Selected varieties were grown in a field with a high natural incidence of the fusarium wilt disease. In 1997, root-knot nematode damage was consistent with earlier years. The fusarium wilt data is not reported in this publication but may be obtained from the 1997 National Fusarium Wilt Cotton Report, Dept. Series No. 208. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS Appropriate analyses of the yield data were made. For each location, the variability in the test was measured and expressed as a percentage of the test mean, i.e., the coefficient of variation (C.V.). An indication of the magnitude of difference between variety averages necessary to be considered a real difference is given for each location. It is designated as the Least Significance Difference (L.S.D.. 05 ). LOCATIONS OF EXPERIMENTS Tennessee Valley Substation B.E. Norris, Supt. H.E. Burgess Prattville Experiment Field D.P. Moore, Supt.
