Plants are adversely affected by abiotic stress conditions such as heat, drought, cold, and
salinity. The physiological determinants of cotton stress tolerance and its processes were …

Cotton is an important cash crop in addition to being a fiber commodity, and it plays an
essential part in the economies of numerous nations. High temperature is the most critical …

Potassium (K) application can alleviate cotton salt stress, but the regulatory mechanisms
affecting cotton fiber elongation and ion homeostasis are still unclear. A two‐year field …

Cotton fiber provides the predominant plant textile in the world, and it is also a model for
plant cell wall biosynthesis. The development of the single-celled cotton fiber takes place …

There is an urgent demand for biostimulant amendments that can sustainably alleviate
osmotic stress. However, limited information is available about the integrated application of …

Kinesin (KIN) genes play vital functions in plant development and the stress response.
However, no comprehensive analysis of this gene family has been reported for cotton. In the …

Owing to the increasing demand for high-quality and high fiber-yielding cotton (Gossypium
spp.), research into the development of stress-resilient cotton cultivars has acquired greater …

Abstract Background Universal stress proteins (USPs) are a class of stress-induced proteins
that play a crucial role in biotic and abiotic stress responses. These proteins have previously …

Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is an RNA-mediated reverse genetics technique that
has become an effective tool to investigate gene function in plants. Cotton is one of the most …

Increasing soil contamination with nickel (Ni) and copper (Cu) is a growing environmental
concern, adversely affecting ecosystems and the survival of both plants and animals. This …
