The present study was conducted on stability analysis for seed cotton yield and its component traits in three varieties H 1098 – I, H 1300 and H 1316 under six environments (three sowing periods i.e. early, normal and late sown conditions in year 2015 & 2016). Observations were recorded for days to first flower, Days to bursting, Plant height (cm), Number of monopods /plant, Number of bolls/ plants, Boll weight (g), Number of seeds/boll, Ginning out turn (%), Lint index (g), Seed index (g), Lint yield/ plant (g) and Seed cotton yield/ plant (g). The analysis of variance computed for the twelve characters in six environments revealed that mean square due to genotypes were highly significant for all the traits. Mean squares due to environment (linear) and linear interaction genotypes × environment were significantly for most of the traits studied. After comparing the different environments of a particular year, it clearly showed that early sowing was most favorable, followed by normal sowing and late sowing as it resulted in poorest performance for most of the traits.
