“…There more, it is possible to limit weed growth in cotton rows by spreading or lifting allelopathic crops between rows of cotton. The herbicides and allelopathic aqueous extracts are effective alone and in combination, one of the examples contains purple nut sedge where the extract of allelopathic sorghum (sorgaab) and a modest dosage of smetolachlor have been showed 62 -92 % control (Iqbal and Cheema 2008;Chohan et al, 2020). Kazemeini et al (2016) reported about the usage of crop residues that required for covering soil surface for controlling the problems of soil erosion and reduced the probability of weed growth, because of variation in temperature of soil or soil physical properties for weed seedlings.…”

Cotton is a sensitive crop for the agronomic practices. Therefore, in this experiment two levels of wheat straw mulch (0 and 4.2 t ha -1 ) and two different plant spacing (25 and 35 cm), applied on three cotton varieties; Lachata, Coker 310 and Stoneville 213 which were to investigate growth traits and also controlling of weeds, pests, insects and diseases. Thus, the results showed that Lachata variety required fewest days from planting to 50 % flowering and boll opening that were 57.83 and 145.66 days respectively. While, lowest and highest height of first fruiting branch were recorded by Coker 310 and Stoneville 213 (11.55 and 13.13 cm), respectively. In addition, the interaction of factors also was significantly affected NODF and HFFB such as in V2S1M1 by (68.33 days and 13.73 cm). The treatments applied by wheat straw mulch have more vigorous cotton plants and less infected by weeds, insect, pests and diseases as compared to no mulch. The researchers must conduct more experiments to determine the effect of straw mulch on growth of cotton by using different rates.

“…In year 2019 alone, Pakistani cotton growing sector sustained a loss of 6 million bales worth approx. 3 billion USD denting already struggling national economic recession (Chohan et al 2020). Experts blame abiotic and biotic factors, including irregular weather patterns and sucking/ chewing/ virus pests respectively, for these agronomically catastrophic outcomes.…”

Cotton plants are normally targeted by numerous challenges from which 75% are biotic. Among these biotic stresses, insects constitute major segment causing direct or indirect considerable yield loss. Bt cotton, corn and soybean are mostly resistant to chewing insects in the field, but their resistance to sap sucking pests has not yet achieved. Likewise Bt protein against chewing insect, there are some proteins characterized for their actions against sucking insects e.g. lectins.Major function of plant lectin is to provide anti-insect activity with other known and unknown function. Therefore, all necessary in-silico, in-vivo and plant transformation experimentation adopted to design a codon optimized (cotton targeted) Pinellia ternata agglutinin (pta) gene cassette under the influence of well-tested CaMV35S promoter in pCAMBIA2300 expression vector enabled by agrobacterium LB4404 plant infecting strain for stable delivery and integration of transgene in the recipient genome. Stable transformation of at least five different cotton plants (transformation efficiency 0.53%) took place successively, which was tested through PCR and Southern blotting in T0 and T1 generation. This work has provided genotypic bases and a candidate phenotype of commercial cotton crop resistant against sucking pests.

“…Poor quality seed created germination problems and the plant coming out of soil remain week and stays susceptible to number of insects pests and diseases; ultimately leading to a hilarious crop failure (Atique ur et al, 2020). Fusarium wilt, boll rot, bacterial blight, leaf curl disease and Alternaria leaf spot were the common diseases contributing extensively in crop failure (Chohan et al, 2020). Forrester (2009) arbitrated that Pakistan lacks in professional seed industry, which is a mammoth factor hindering the production of cotton in Pakistan.…”

Cotton is regarded as a cash crop in Pakistan and the country is ranked 5th in terms of production and 5th importer in the world as well. Cotton production in Pakistan is under huge pressure and it's continuously declining over the period. This review aimed at exploring the different reasons for the cotton production decline. This review comprises two major sections. In the first section, percentage change in area, production and yield of cotton in Punjab, Sindh and Pakistan is calculated from 1990-2020. This analysis indicated a drastic decline in area, production and the average yield of cotton in the country. In the second section, previously published literature is consolidated to explore the different constraints causing change in the area, production and average yield of cotton. The major constraints causing the sweeping decline included environmental constraints, climate change, water-related constraints, agronomic constraints and socio-economic related constraints. This study concludes that cotton crop decline is not in favor of cotton associated industry, farming groups and national economy and it is much needed to bring reforms for the revival of cotton crop. This study urges further research on exploring the reasons that are compelling farmers to reduce the cotton area, quitting cotton cultivation or switching to other crops.
