Laboratory Simulation of Cotton Modules

D. L. Hendrix, T. J. Henneberry, T. Steele, C. C. Chu and W. Coates


 
ABSTRACT

Two methods of exploring cotton module behavior under laboratory conditions have been examined. These two methods have been employed to test the ability of an enzyme preparation to ameliorate the sticky nature of seedcotton contaminated with honeydew secreted by Bemisia argentifolii. One method utilized plastic buckets packed with seedcotton to the density of a cotton module. The second method employed 4 X 4 X 4' boxes of seedcotton. Both methods provide a possible alternative to utilization of entire modules for experimentation.
