We present an overview of the evolution and diversity in Gossypium (the cotton genus). This
framework facilitates insight into fundamental aspects of plant biology, provides the …

We present an overview of the taxonomy of Gossypium L.(the cotton genus) and its
evolutionary history. Gossypium contains more than 50 recognized species, including …

We present an overview of Gossypium genome evolution and the implications of this
understanding for targeted breeding objectives. The cotton genus (Gossypium) contains …

We present an overview of the cotton genus (Gossypium) as a model for the study of
polyploidy. A synopsis of the origin and evolution of polyploid cotton is provided, offering an …

Gossypium, as the one of the biggest genera, the most diversity, and the highest economic
value in field crops, is assuming an increasingly important role in studies on plant taxonomy …

Gossypium, the cotton genus, includes∼ 50 species distributed in tropical and sub-tropical
regions of all continents except Europe. Here we provide a synopsis of the evolutionary …

The genus Gossypium has a long history of taxonomic and evolutionary study. Much of this
attention has been stimulated by the fact that the genus includes four different domesticated …

Abstract Cotton (Gossypium spp.), a leading natural fiber, is a major cash crop in the world
and is grown commercially in more than 50 countries. China, India, USA, Pakistan and …

Previous molecular phylogenetic studies have failed to resolve the branching order among
the major cotton (Gossypium) lineages, and it has been unclear whether this reflects actual …

We employed phylogenomic methods to study molecular evolutionary processes and
phylogeny in the geographically widely dispersed New World diploid cottons (Gossypium …
