Abstract
Cotton is one of the most important fiber crops of the world and is likely to enjoy this advantage in the future. In Egypt, cotton is important for both export and local textile industry. Now, cotton area extends longitudinally about 1000 Km from north to south in Egypt, the evaluation process of the commercial varieties as well as the newly released or promising strains over different locations and over different years is of great importance for the breeder.
It is essential to develop new varieties characterized by high yielding ability and better fiber quality to replace old ones or those which ran out. Before taken any decisions breeder has to evaluate promising strains which could be desirable for their genetic and commercial work of the same category by testing their phenotypic stability.
