TLDR
Mainstem elongation rates were very sensitive to temperature after about 3 wk following emergence, and growth and developmental rates of Pima cotton plants grown at different temperatures were verysensitive to temperature.Abstract:
(...) The objective of this experiment was to determine the growth and developmental rates of Pima cotton plants grown at different temperatures. Pima cotton was grown in 20/12, 25/17, 30/22, 35/27, and 40/32°C day/night temperature cycles in sunlit controlled-environment chambers soon after emergence to 64 d under optimum water and nutrient conditions. Plant heights and mainstem nodes were determined at weekly intervals. Mainstem elongation rates were very sensitive to temperature after about 3 wk following emergence (...)read more

Temperature thresholds and crop production: a review
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identified temperature thresholds for a range of crops from cereal crops to horticultural crops and to legum crops through an extensive literature review, and the effects of extreme temperatures on yield and yield components were then reviewed and summarised.

Influence of High Temperature and Breeding for Heat Tolerance in Cotton: A Review
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of high temperature on the cotton plant as a whole, including important physiological, growth and yield processes, and fiber properties, are discussed in detail, and various new screening techniques based on physiological, ecophysiological, and morphological traits to identify tolerant germplasm are discussed.
