Abstract
Verticillium dahliae is one of the most serious diseases in cotton, which influence the cotton production and quality severely. Now, it is the key research subject of cotton resistance genetics, breeding and plant pathology. In this report, the eight upland cotton parents including four resistant (Changkang cotton, 5173, Hebei Kanghuang and Shandong Kanghuang) and 4 susceptible cultivars (TM-1, Junmian-1, Xinluzao-1 and Ganbing-1) were hybridized in 8×8 half-dialled cross, and were inoculated with Anyang strain with middle virulence, and the main resistant characters including the percentage of susceptible plants and the disease index were investigated. The estimation of the ratio between components of genetic variance and phenotypic variance indicates that the additive effects of both diseases index and disease index of vascular were significant, while the dominant effects were insignificant. The result suggests that the effect selection in the early segregation generation will be better, and continuous selection of the resistant plants is helpful for the improvement of cotton resistance to Verticillium dahliae. Analysis of the heritability shows that narrow sense heritability and broad sense heritability of the disease resistance are significantly different. Covariance analysis also shows that the average disease indexes per plant positively correlate with the vascular disease indexes significantly, but Verticillium wilt negatively correlate with yield character significantly. All these are very helpful to elucidate the effect of Verticillium wilt on the cotton production theoretically. According to our tests, Hebei Kanghuang and Changkang mian are good parents to improve the resistance to Verticillium wilt.
