Delta and Pine Land Company is introducing a new high-yielding, medium-maturing stripper variety that possesses Roundup Ready^® (RR) technology. PM 2266 RR represents novel germplasm to the Texas High Plains cotton producing region. PM 2266 RR was developed at Delta and Pine Land’s breeding locations in Aiken, TX and Hale Center, TX by Dr. Richard Sheetz. Numerous years of testing has shown that PM 2266 RR is well-adapted to both the Northern and Southern cotton growing regions of the Texas High Plains. Delta and Pine Land data and Texas A&M University Agricultural Research and Extension Cotton Performance trial data show that PM 2266 RR has produced more lint yield per acre than PM 2326 RR and PM 2200 RR. Seed supplies of PM 2266 RR are expected to be limited for the 2002 growing season.
