Eleven cotton varieties were evaluated for yield and quality in two  large plot trials in fields  with Verticillium infested soils.  The trials were conducted under sprinkler irrigation and was replicated three times in a randomized complete block design.  All plots were weighed using a weigh wagon and sub-samples were taken from each plot for quality parameters.
