The field trials were conducted at the trial field, Dicle University, Diyarbakir, Turkey in 2019. The trial field was a naturally contaminated with disease agent <em>V. dahliae</em>. Nine new advanced lines of cotton were used as material. Verticillium wilt resistant/tolerant cotton cultivars DP-396, BA-119 and STV-468 were used as control cultivars. Disease index and disease incidence (%) were examined in the study. The experiment was set up in a randomized block design with four replications. According to the variance analysis, significant results were obtained in terms of disease index and the rate of infection (%). Based on disease index values, the STV-468 standard genotype and Hat-1, Hat-2, Hat-3, Hat-4, Hat-5 and Hat-9 candidate lines were the most disease tolerant genotypes. In terms of disease incidence (%), the STV-468 and DP-396 standard genotypes and Hat-1, Hat-2, Hat-5, Hat-7 and Hat-9 advanced lines were determined as the most tolerant genotypes. It was concluded that the cotton genotypes STV-468, Hat-1, Hat-2, Hat-5 and Hat-9 can be used in <em>V. dahliae</em> infected cotton cultivation areas.</p> ER -
