Salt stress is a complex trait that poses a grand challenge in developing new crops better
adapted to saline environments. Some plants, called recretohalophytes, that have naturally …

Cotton is the prime natural fiber with economic significance globally. Cotton farming and
breeding have a long history in Pakistan. The development of high yielding upland cotton …

Fine mapping QTL s and identifying candidate genes for cotton fibre‐quality and yield traits
would be beneficial to cotton breeding. Here, we constructed a high‐density genetic map by …

Cotton is an important cash crop, providing raw material for different industries and plays
crucial role in the economy of several countries. It requires optimum temperature for …

In vitro manipulations of cotton often require high-quality sterile seedlings as a source of
hypocotyl and cotyledon explants for initiation of embryogenic cultures or embryo apexes for …

Recently, textiles and their end-of-life management have become the focus of public and
political attention. In the European Union the revised waste framework directive defines …

Background Many of genome features which could help unravel the often complex post-
speciation evolution of closely related species are obscured because of their location in …

Abstract Pink bollworm, Pectinophora gossypiella (Saunders) infestation on Bt cotton is a
major concern to cotton production in India. The genetic diversity and phylogeographic …

Empirical cotton breeding was based upon the concept of selecting single and best high-
yielding progeny from the segregating populations to develop a cultivar. It helped in …

Cotton (Gossypium spp.) contributes significantly to the economy of cotton-producing
countries. Pakistan is the fourth-largest producer of cotton after China, the USA and India …
