However cotton crop is being considered as drought tolerant, its sensitivity to drought stress varies greatly in various genotypes (Naidu et al., 1998; Gorham, 1996).

Cotton is highly affected to drought stress which affects crop growth and development, square formation and retention, boll formation and development, boll shedding and ultimately causing reduction of seed cotton yield and lint quality which suggest the development of drought tolerant genotypes in order to get economic yield in drought hit areas.
