Description:
A F2 population were developed from a cross ofTM-1 and CS-817 (Registration no. GP-842), achromosome substitution line in which all chromosome pairs are genetically similar to TM-1, except for thechromosome 17 of Gossypium barbadense. Individual F2 plant was self pollinated for five generations usingsingle seed descent method to create a population of G. barbadense chromosome-17 specific recombinantinbred lines (CS-B17Rils). This line was selected from this for its low micronaire (3.96 mic)
