Genetics of oil content, plant height, lint index, ginning out turn and lint weight showed that these traits were controlled by dominant genes and dominance x dominance interactions. The traits viz., monopodial branches, seed cotton yield, boll weight, sympodial branches per plant and number of bolls per plant were controlled by dominance gene effects and additive x additive gene interactions. For seed index, additive gene interaction was prominent.
