Foliage colour.Among the various exotic and extra provincial types of grain introduced and studied on the Cotton Breeding Station.Coimbatore,three types viz.1.22 from Sisra in the Punjab. T16 and T62 from Pusa in Bihar possessed pale yellowish chlorotic leaves.It was found to be a definite varietal character breeding true in 1.22.but in the other types obsrvations were made only for one season and as such need further confirmation.It might however be stated that colour difference noticed in L22 is different from those described by Shaw and Khan(1931).These authours have recorded that the colour ranges from light yellowish green to dark bluish green.But in L22 the leaves assume a distinctly greenish yellow colour specially after a month after germination.which hue remains so,till harvest.
