Eight cultivars/lines of Gossypium hirsutum (CIM-443, CIM-448, CIM-1100, FH-634, S-111, S-113, Cedix, and LRA 5166) resistant to cotton leaf curl virus (CLCuV), one moderately-resistant (cv. NIAB-Krishma), and one susceptible (cv. S-12) were used. Leaf N content was lowest in S-12, but increased considerably due to disease. Leaf K and Ca contents of S-12 were lower in the diseased leaves than in healthy ones. Chlorophyl a and b contents were highest in lines S-111, S-113 and S-12. Leaf water potential in S-12 and NIAB-Krishma was also decreased due to disease. The most distinctive characteristic to differentiate between lines was epicuticular wax content.
