With the advent of Bt cultivars cotton production is reinvigorated in the country with China being on the verge of being knocked down on the production front. However, of late the stagnating or the decreasing productivity either due to degrading natural resources and faulty practices and/or susceptibility of transgenic cultivars to insect damage, leaf reddening and climate change are making the researcher to take stock of the situation before embarking on agronomic studies with higher yield goals. Hence, the review. |
