Previously we reported on the relationship between moisture uptake by cotton fiber (as assessed by moisture regain and water of imbibition) and maturity or micronaire of the fiber, for cultivars grown in TX, MS, and GA in 2001 and 2002. We now reporton moisture properties of cultivars grown in MS and GA in 2003 as part of the 5-year area-of-growth study (Cotton Variety Spinning Trials), and the relationship of those properties to maturity or micronaire of the cottons.
