Changes in nucleolar size and nucleolar vacuolation at early stages of fiber development and final fiber dimensions were determined for cotton of different species: Gossypium hirsutum L. cv. B49, Gossypium barbadense L. cv. Menoufi and Gossypium arboreum L. cv. Virnar. Size of the nucleolus in combination with its vacuolation at an early stage of development was found to be clearly associated with the final result of fiber development.
