We will present performance data on cotton lines from crosses involving BARBREN-713 and adapted cotton lines.  BARBREN-713 is a source for resistance to reniform nematode.  We evaluated 40 lines with various combinations of nematode resistance genes in two fields:  one infested with reniform nematode and one not infested.  Data will be presented on yield, fiber and agronomic performance of the experimental lines.
