Cotton is an important economic crop, and many loci for important traits have been
identified, but it remains challenging and time-consuming to identify candidate or causal …

Summary Sea Island cotton (Gossypium barbadense) is the source of the world's finest fibre
quality cotton, yet relatively little is understood about genetic variations among diverse …

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 …

Significance Statement Interspecific introgression from Gossypium hirsutum has reorganized
the genomic architecture of Gossypium barbadense. In this study, the genetic basis of …

Abstract Introduction Allotetraploid upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is native to the
Mesoamerican and Caribbean regions, had been improved in the southern United States by …

Introduction The simultaneous improvement of fiber quality and yield for cotton is strongly
limited by the narrow genetic backgrounds of Gossypium hirsutum (Gh) and the negative …

Cultivated plants of Gossypium hirsutum Cav.(cotton) consistently emit low levels of volatile
organic compounds, primarily mono-and sesquiterpenoids, which are produced and stored …

Whole-genome duplication (polyploidization) is among the most dramatic mutational
processes in nature, so understanding how natural selection differs in polyploids relative to …

Whole-genome duplications (WGDs) are a prominent process of diversification in
eukaryotes. The genetic and evolutionary forces that WGD imposes on cytoplasmic …

Structural variations (SVs) are critical factors affecting genome evolution and important traits.
However, identification results and functional analyses of SVs in upland cotton are rare …
