Naturally brown colored cotton (NBCC) is becoming increasingly popular due to its natural
properties of coloration. However, poor fiber quality and color fading are key issues that are …

The existence of only natural brown and green cotton fibers (BCF and GCF, respectively), as
well as poor fiber quality, limits the use of naturally colored cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) …

Naturally-colored brown cotton (NBC) fiber is an environmentally friendly raw source of fiber
for textile applications. The fiber of some NBC cultivars exhibits flame-retardant properties …

Green-colored fiber (GCF) is the unique raw material for naturally colored cotton textile but
we know little about the pigmentation process in GCF. Here we compared transcriptomes …

Background Naturally-colored cotton has become increasingly popular because of their
natural properties of coloration, UV protection, flame retardant, antibacterial activity and …

Colored cotton is also called eco-cotton because of its natural color fiber. It is inferior in yield
and quality than white cotton. The underlying regulatory genes involved in fiber quality and …

Brown cotton fiber (BCF) is a unique raw material of naturally colored cotton (NCC). But
characteristics of the regulatory gene network and metabolic components related to the …

The wild cotton species Gossypium stocksii produces a brown fiber that provides a valuable
resource for the color improvement of naturally colored cotton (NCC) fiber. However, the …

To understand the mechanism of fiber development and pigmentation formation, the mRNAs
of two cotton lines were sequenced: line Z128 (light brown fiber) was a selected mutant from …

Naturally colored cotton (NCC) results from pigmentation in developing fibers. Importantly,
NCC serves as an environmental-friendly resource for human society because it does not …
