Abstract
Removal of fruit from the cotton plant for 0, 3, and 7 weeks after fruiting began caused differences in certain fiber properties for the 7-weeks removal only. Fiber quality as influenced by fruit removal was apparently associated with the variety. Fiber quality, other than fineness, of cotton produced by plants which received insecticide applications for protection from cotton insects beginning at plant emergence and continued to maturity did not differ from that produced by plants which received insecticides applications for control of cotton insects only after the boll weevil infestation reached 25% or where no insecticides were used. All treatments receiving insecticide applications yielded finer fiber regardless of application schedule.
