Abstract The 17 wild Australian Gossypium species are distant diploid relatives of the
commercial tetraploid cottons, G. barbadense L. and G. hirsutum L. They interest cotton …

The New World allopolyploid (AD-genome) cottons (Gossypium) originated through
hybridization of ancestral diploid species that presently have allopatric ranges in Africa-Asia …

Sustained genetic advance requires that genetically diverse parents be mated to form
segregating populations for selection. Genetic diversity of US cotton (Gossypium hirsutum …

An inbred line (TM‐1) was developed at the Texas Agricutural Experiment Station as a
standard reference cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) for genetic and cytogenetic …

A backcross-self population from a cross between Gossypium hirsutum and G. barbadense
was used to dissect the molecular basis of genetic variation governing two parameters …

Allotetraploid cotton is an economically important natural-fiber-producing crop worldwide.
After polyploidization, Gossypium hirsutum L. evolved to produce a higher fiber yield and to …

Gossypium species (±49) represent a vast resource of genetic diversity for the improvement
of cultivated cotton. To determine intra-and inter-specific genetic relationships within a …

Limited interspecific introgression has been achieved in the breeding of the two primary
cultivated species of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. and G. barbadense L.). Genetic diversity …

The New Mexico cotton breeding program was established in 1926 and has been led by five
generations of breeders and geneticists. The program has released more than 30 Acala …

The drawings of the species, which together with brief descriptions form the main part of this
volume, have already appeared in serial form in The Empire Cotton Growing Review [cf …
