Cotton Varieties:
|
NIBGE has developed Bt-cotton cultivars IR-3701 (very popular among farming community) and IR-1524 (known for its low inputs requirement). A continues effort is focusted on the development cotton leaf curl virus resistant varieties through marker assisted selection procedures.
At the moment, our two new IR-cotton lines IR-901 and IR-NIBGE-3 are being tested in various agro-climatic zones of Pakistan, which have better insect resistance and virus resistance capabilities to the approved varieties currently available in the market
