Özet:
A greenhouse experiment was performed to study the effects of boron (B) on growth, and B distribution in the
plant parts. The reactions of cotton varieties, grown in a mixture of sand and perlite medium, were investigated
in point of boron doses. The experiment was conducted with four B doses (0.5, 7.5, 15, 22.5 mg B L-1) and
eight cultivars (Barut 2005, Gossipolsüz Nazilli, Gürel Bey, Nazilli 143, Nazilli 342, Nazilli 39, Nazilli-503,
STN 8A) in factorial experiment design. Number of damaged leaf from boron toxicity, root, stem and leaf boron
concentrations increased by boron application doses while fresh weight, dry weight and leaf numbers per plant
decreased. In point of yield relations on boron doses, Gürel Bey and Gossipolsüz Nazilli cultivars were the most
tolerant and Nazilli 39 cultivar was the most sensitive against boron toxicity.
