Seventy-nine day-neutral (DN) cotton, Gossypium hirsutum L., germplasm lines (Reg. no.

The 79 lines were derived from photoperiodic primitive race accessions. The germplasm release designation, registration number, and PI number of each line are given in Table 1. The last four digits of the release designation correspond to the Texas (T-) accession number (3). Descriptor data for many of the primitive (T-) accessions were reported previously (3) and are accessible through the USDA's Germplasm Resources Information Network (GRIN) database. These germplasm lines were developed following the pro-
