Fiber yield and quality are the most important traits for Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum
L.). Identifying high yield and good fiber quality genes are the prime concern of researchers …

Background Advances in genome sequencing technology, particularly restriction-site
associated DNA sequence (RAD-seq) and whole-genome resequencing, have greatly aided …

Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) accounts most of the natural fiber production
worldwide. Lint percentage (LP) and seed index (SI) are important components of cotton …

Background The study of quantitative trait loci (QTL) in cotton (Gossypium spp.) is focused
on traits of agricultural significance. Previous studies have identified a plethora of QTL …

Brown fibre cotton is an environmental‐friendly resource that plays a key role in the textile
industry. However, the fibre quality and yield of natural brown cotton are poor, and …

Abstract Background Cotton (Gossypium spp.) fiber yield is one of the key target traits, and
improved fiber yield has always been thought of as an important objective in the breeding …

Abstract The excellent Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) cultivars developed since 1949
have made a huge contribution to cotton production in China, the world's largest producer …

Genetic improvement in fiber quality is one of the main challenges for cotton breeders. Fiber
quality traits are controlled by multiple genes and are classified as complex quantitative …

Background Cotton is a significant economic crop that plays an indispensable role in many
domains. Gossypium hirsutum L. is the most important fiber crop worldwide and contributes …

Gossypium hirsutum races are believed to be potential reservoirs of desirable traits, which
can play crucial roles to overcome the existing narrow genetic base of modern Upland …
