Cotton is the first and the main fibrous plant that it plays an important role in the creation of careers for individuals and development of textile industries in all over the world. Selection of a suitable cultivar for the West Azerbaijan region is important, since West Azerbaijan is the origin of cotton in Iran. This research conducted in order to evaluate of quantitative and qualitative traits of hopeful cotton cultivars under cold conditions in Urmia region. In this study eight cultivars evaluated with Varamin and Sahel as check cultivars in form of randomized complete block design with four replications in 2014 and 2015 (two cropping seasons) at Saatlou station of west Azerbaijan agricultural research, education, and extension organization. Results showed that K8802 cultivar is earliness cultivar and also is one of the best cultivars according to the traits such as the number of bolls per plant, sympodia per plant, final yield, seed cotton yield (yield of per plant), and qualitative traits. According to the combination analysis results, the interaction effect between treatment and year (treatment
