Abstract

The water deficiency in all cotton-growing areas has reduced the chances of obtaining high yields in recent years. Therefore, developing cotton that is tolerant to water stress, has a high yield, and has superior fiber quality traits is one of the most crucial breeding objectives. In this study, Ramses, Bomba, Fiona, May-455, Bir-949, and Ozbek-100 cotton varieties with high yield and fiber technological properties were used as the female; Eva, Sahin-2000, Sasha, and Sahra-09 cotton varieties tolerant to water stress were used as the male. These were crossed according to the line × tester mating pattern, and 24 F1 hybrids were obtained. The parents and F1 hybrids were tested under 100% and 25% irrigation. Genotypes performed significantly differently in irrigation conditions. Ginning out-turn and fiber length under both normal and deficit irrigation conditions were controlled by additive genes, whereas seed cotton yield, fiber fineness, and fiber strength were controlled by non-additive genes. Among the parents, Bir-949 had the highest mean values for all traits, whereas Sahra-09 had significant and positive GCA effects. The Bir-949 × Sahra-09 hybrid combination obtained from crossing the best combining parents was the most promising hybrid regarding average performance and SCA effects.

Aim & Scope

ABOUT THE JOURNAL
AIMS AND SCOPE

Turkish Journal of Field Crops is the official publication of Society of Field Crops Science. It offers the latest developments in research to scientists active in field crops. The Journal includes only the original research papers on the following topics:

Breeding and Genetics
Agronomy
Physiology
Forage Crops
Medicinal and Aromatical Plants
Biotechnology
Utilization
High-Throughput Phenotyping / Smart Agriculture

Manuscripts submitted to the Turkish Journal of Field Crops must be based on well-defined experimental research conducted in accordance with appropriate experimental designs with adequate replication. Studies should be carried out under controlled field and/or greenhouse conditions, where treatments, experimental factors, and management practices are clearly described and allow for valid statistical analysis.
The journal does not consider for evaluation manuscripts that rely solely on:
samples collected from natural populations or habitats, or
materials obtained from farmers’ fields or commercial production areas,

when such studies lack a planned experimental design and replication. Accordingly, papers that primarily present and discuss analytical results derived from these types of samples, without controlled experimental implementation, fall outside the scope of the journal.

The Turkish Journal of Field Crops prioritizes research that ensures reproducibility, statistical rigor, and clear interpretation of treatment effects under experimentally controlled agronomic conditions.
