| Experiment Background | Cotton is the most important commercial crop of India, often referred as the White Gold. In India, about 95% area in cotton is under the Bollgard-II. This technology has contributed largely to cotton production and productivity in India. As hybrids are inherently designed to perform best under high input conditions and most the hybrids available in India are of long duration and are not ideally suited for rain-fed tracts. Adaption Bt technology only in hybrids led to yield stagnation, doubling of fertilizer use and resurgence of insecticide usage over the past 6-7 years is primarily a growing concern. The use of Bt technology in elite varieties of cotton would harness full potential of technology. The seed cost of Bt varieties is much lower than the cost of hybrid seed. Thus, a Bt variety is a cheaper alternative. At our research center we have selected the Cry1Ac lines from the advanced backcross generations and continuously selfed them in on order generate homozygous stable lines of Bt varieties. Further characterization of these Bt cotton varieties biochemically and for Cry1Ac protein at different growth stages along with genetic diversity using molecular maker would pave the way for identification of promising Bt cotton varieties. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
