Abstract: The population composed of 145 varietiesstrains)of glandless cotton from home and abroad was studied during 1988-1990.The results indicated that the population was characterized by higher variability in lift yield, and by lower in boll weight,lint percentage,seed index,lint index lint index and fibre characters.Most varieties possessed the properties of lower lint percentage and fibre strength,medium fibre fineness,longer fibre,better uniformity and high seed index.The germplasms with specific target traits were screened out of the population.The varieties from China could provide better gene resources in lint percentage and fibre fineness, and the foreign cottons could do better in boll weight,lint index and fibre strength.

Key words: Glandless cotton, Yield character, Fibre quality, Genetic resources
