The objective of this study was to explore the known narrow genetic diversity and discover
single-nucleotide polymorphic (SNP) markers for marker-assisted breeding within Pima …

Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) has a narrow germplasm base, which constrains
marker development and hampers intraspecific breeding. A pressing need exists for high …

The presence of two closely related subgenomes in the allotetraploid Upland cotton,
combined with a narrow genetic base of the cultivated varieties, has hindered the …

Considering the advantages of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in genotyping and
variety identification, the first set public SNP markers at Cotton Marker Database (http://www …

Background Cotton germplasm resources contain beneficial alleles that can be exploited to
develop germplasm adapted to emerging environmental and climate conditions. Accessions …

Varietal single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the differences within one of the two
subgenomes between different tetraploid cotton varieties and have not been practically used …

Determining the genetic rearrangement and domestication footprints in Gossypium hirsutum
cultivars and primitive race genotypes are essential for effective gene conservation efforts …

Abstract Background Cotton (Gossypium spp.) is the largest producer of natural fibers for
textile and is an important crop worldwide. Crop production is comprised primarily of G …

Background Cultivated cotton is an annual fiber crop derived mainly from two perennial
species, Gossypium hirsutum L. or upland cotton, and G. barbadense L., extra long-staple …

Cotton (Gossypium spp.) is the world's leading textile fiber crop, and an important source of
oil and protein. Insufficient candidate gene derived-markers suitable for genetic mapping …
