Response of New Cotton Varieties to Verticillium Wilt, Bacterial Blight, and Root-Knot Nematodes

New varieties and advanced commercial breeding lines were tested in fields naturally infested with Verticillium dahliae or Meloidogyne incognita.  Disease and yield measurements were taken.  Varieties were artificially inoculated with bacterial blight (race 18) in the field and incidence of disease was recorded.
