Gossypium herbaceum, a cultivated diploid cotton species (2n= 2x= 26, A1A1), has
favorable traits such as excellent drought tolerance and resistance to sucking insects and …

Gossypium arboreum, a cultivated cotton species (2n= 26, AA) native to Asia, possesses
invaluable characteristics unavailable in the tetraploid cultivated cotton gene pool, such as …

Gossypium turneri, a wild cotton species (2n= 2X= 26, D 10 D 10) originating from Mexico,
possesses invaluable characteristics unavailable in the cultivated tetraploid cotton gene …

Abstract The 17 wild Australian Gossypium species are distant diploid relatives of the
commercial tetraploid cottons, G. barbadense L. and G. hirsutum L. They interest cotton …

Gossypium anomalum represents an inestimable source of genes that could potentially be
transferred into the gene pool of cultivated cotton. To resolve interspecific hybrid sterility …

Wild species of Gossypium ssp. are an important source of traits for improving commercial
cotton cultivars. Previous reports show that Gossypium herbaceum L. and Gossypium …

The diploid species G. herbaceum (A1) and G. raimondii (D5) are the progenitors of
allotetraploid cotton, respectively. However, hybrids between G. herbaceum and G …

Cotton (Gossypium spp.) is the most important natural fiber source in the world. The genetic
potential of cotton can be successfully and efficiently exploited by identifying and solving the …

Genetic barriers often prevent exploiting diploid cotton germplasm for the improvement of
tetraploid cotton. The objective of this study was to investigate mating schemes to achieve …

Key message We report the first complete set of alien addition lines of G. hirsutum. The
characterized lines can be used to introduce valuable traits from G. australe into cultivated …
