 Seventeen chromosome substitution lines (CSL) were developed at the New Beasley Laboratory at Texas A&M, each with  one G. hirsutum chromosome replaced by its homolog from G. barbadense. The number of ovules per boll, the number of mature seeds per boll, high volume instrument fiber properties, and advanced fiber information system fiber properties of these CSL were compared with their parents, two extra long staple upland genotypes developed by Texas A&M AgriLife Research, and a standard upland cultivar.
