Abstract
CCC in either absence or presence of salinity slightly and irregularly affected the shoot dry weight, but consistently increased the seed cotton yield. The extent of such positive effect upon yield tended to be larger in the presence rather than in the absence of salinity when using CCC as a seed-soaking medium alone, but the reverse if applied as a spray after seed-soaking.
