Abstract: Data from 16 cotton varieties released in Hubei province since 1996 were analyzed to estimate the fiber quality. The results showed that: the fiber length was preferable, but lower in strength and higher in micronaire value. The quality of cotton wool produced in Hubei was rather better than in other province, just inferior in color character. Based on the difference of cotton fiber quality in three regions, E-dong, E-bei, and Jianghan Plain should be built to produce three main types cotton, respectively. How to improve the fiber quality of cotton in Hubei was discussed in three aspects: breeding, producing and zoned management.
