Distribution characteristics of yield and fiber quality of different cotton fruiting branch under low density plant- ing was studied with Xiangnongzamian 68 as material. The results indicated that obvious differences in yield and fiber quality existed among different fruiting branch. The 6th to 17th fruiting branches were the important part in cotton yield, and they had more boll number, higher boll weight and bigger fluctuation of lint percentage. The 7th to 10th fruiting bran- ches and the 20th to 22nd fruiting branches showed dominance in fi...
