Cotton is not only the world's most important natural fiber crop, but it is also an ideal system
in which to study genome evolution, polyploidization, and cell elongation. With the assembly …

Cotton is an irreplaceable economic crop currently domesticated in the human world for its
extremely elongated fiber cells specialized in seed epidermis, which makes it of high …

Upland cotton is the most important natural-fiber crop. The genomic variation of diverse
germplasms and alleles underpinning fiber quality and yield should be extensively explored …

Cotton fibre is a unicellular seed trichome, and lint fibre initials per seed as a factor
determines fibre yield. However, the mechanisms controlling fibre initiation from ovule …

Of the two cultivated species of allopolyploid cotton, Gossypium barbadense produces extra-
long fibers for the production of superior textiles. We sequenced its genome (AD) 2 and …

Owing to changing climatic conditions, drought stress has emerged as a global issue
significantly affecting the production of cotton. Enhancing water use efficiency and …

The complex allotetraploid genome is one of major challenges in cotton for repressing gene
expression. Developing site-specific DNA mutation is the long-term dream for cotton …

Trichomes are specialized epidermal cells and a vital plant organ that protect plants from
various harms and provide valuable resources for plant development and use. Some key …

In this review, we summarize the results of experiments that lead to altered levels of
phytohormones in transgenic plants to improve plant productivity. The available data …

Upland cotton is an important global cash crop for its long seed fibers and high edible oil
and protein content. Progress in cotton genomics promotes the advancement of cotton …
