Upon assembling the first Gossypium herbaceum (A1) genome and substantially improving
the existing Gossypium arboreum (A2) and Gossypium hirsutum ((AD) 1) genomes, we …

The complex allotetraploid nature of the cotton genome (AADD; 2 n= 52) makes genetic,
genomic and functional analyses extremely challenging. Here we sequenced and …

Gossypium hirsutum has proven difficult to sequence owing to its complex allotetraploid
(AtDt) genome. Here we produce a draft genome using 181-fold paired-end sequences …

We have sequenced and assembled a draft genome of G. raimondii, whose progenitor is the
putative contributor of the D subgenome to the economically important fiber-producing …

Cotton produces natural fiber for the textile industry. The genetic effects of genomic structural
variations underlying agronomic traits remain unclear. Here, we generate two high-quality …

Upland cotton is a model for polyploid crop domestication and transgenic improvement.
Here we sequenced the allotetraploid Gossypium hirsutum L. acc. TM-1 genome by …

Despite rapidly decreasing costs and innovative technologies, sequencing of angiosperm
genomes is not yet undertaken lightly. Generating larger amounts of sequence data more …

Allotetraploid cotton species (Gossypium hirsutum and Gossypium barbadense) have long
been cultivated worldwide for natural renewable textile fibers. The draft genome sequences …

Allotetraploid cotton is an economically important natural-fiber-producing crop worldwide.
After polyploidization, Gossypium hirsutum L. evolved to produce a higher fiber yield and to …

Understanding the composition, evolution, and function of the Gossypium hirsutum (cotton)
genome is complicated by the joint presence of two genomes in its nucleus (AT and DT …
