Cotton being a cash crop in Pakistan has a profound influence on the local economy. It maintained prominence and pride by contributing a handsome foreign exchange to the country. The cotton production had decreased consecutively for the last few years due to various types of biotic and abiotic stresses, and due to a decline in cropped area. A critical examination of the alarming situation of cotton production demands retailoring of the cotton plant with mellifluous combinations of the desirable traits in a single genotype. All such strives need some genetic information and knowledge about the type of action involved in various agronomic characters like plant height, number of bolls per plant, boll weight and yield of the seed cotton per plant.
