The present study investigates the effect of phosphorus levels on fiber quality traits of three cotton cultivars (CIM 496, MNH 786 and FH 901) field tested during kharif 2008 against four phosphorus levels (0, 30, 60 and 90 kg per ha). Cultivars differed significantly with respect to fiber quality traits but Phosphorus levels did not show significant effect except for ginning out turn. MNH 786 showed maximum fiber strength, fineness, uniformity, fiber elongation and minimum GOT, while FH 901 showed maximum GOT against minimum values for other quality traits.
