dc.description.abstractCotton plant belongs to the genus Gossypium and family Malvaceae, or mallow family. The plant is indigenous to the tropic and sub-tropic region including Africa, America and India. The plant is an essential cash crop cultivated in various countries. It provides raw material for textile industries and also for edible oil (Shashank et al., 2014a). The study of genetic diversity in a crop breeding programme is essential for the selection of suitable diverse parent to obtain heterotic hybrids as well as conservation and characterization of germplasm (Shashank et al., 2014b). Genetic diversity of cotton cultivar is measured by assessing morphological characters, biochemical and molecular markers. This provides information on choosing parents in the development of cotton cultivars and hybrids (Wu et al., 2006 and Ullah et al., 2012). Zhang et al. (2008) reported that DNA based marker have been subjugated broadly for molecular characterization
