- Intervention effect Pix application increased protein and oil yield per ha and seed index compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Pix application increased seed protein percentage, especially at 10 ppm.
- Intervention effect Pix applications slightly increased seed oil percentage.
- Intervention effect The number of Pix applications had no noticeable effect on seed protein and oil percentage.
- Intervention effect Pix application decreased saturated fatty acids (myristic, stearic and palmitic) in cottonseed oil.
- Intervention effect Pix application increased unsaturated fatty acids (oleic and linoleic) in cottonseed oil.
- Intervention effect Ten ppm Pix gave the highest TU/TS ratio of unsaturated to saturated fatty acids.
- Intervention effect The highest response occurred with 40 or 60 ppm Pix.
- Intervention effect One Pix application gave the highest response rather than two applications.
- Observation Palmitic acid was the most abundant saturated fatty acid in cottonseed oil.
- Observation Linoleic acid was the most abundant unsaturated fatty acid in cottonseed oil.
