Advances of Genetics and Breeding of Short Season Cotton in China Abstract：This paper shows that the short season cotton varieties have selected in China in 50 years. The breeding achievements of the short season cotton were summarized from yield traits，earliness traits and fiber quality traits. We summarized genetic advancements of yield traits，earliness traits and fiber quality traits of the short season cotton. Breeding methods of the short season cotton were also showed. New technologies，including space mutation breeding，biochemical assistant breeding，gene engineering，molecular marker assistant selection (MAS) have been applied in the short season cotton. The prospect of breeding is brought forward in the short season cotton.
