Cottonseed oil is recognized as an important oil in food industry for its unique characters:
low flavor reversion and the high level of antioxidants (VitaminE) as well as unsaturated fatty …

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPCase) mainly produces oxaloacetic acid for
tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. Here we reported that GhPEPC2 silencing with PEPC2-RNAi …

Cotton is not only the most important fiber crop but also the fifth most important oilseed crop
in the world because of its oil‐rich seeds as a byproduct of fiber production. By comparative …

Edible oils with high unsaturated fatty acids, particularly oleic acid, are beneficial to human
health. Cotton is one of the top five oil crops in the world, but the mechanism of high-quality …

Cottonseed oil has become an important source of edible oil due to its significant cost
advantage. However, there is a growing concern over its fatty acid composition and …

Key message Based on the integration of QTL-mapping and regulatory network analyses,
five high-confidence stable QTL regions, six candidate genes and two microRNAs that …

Background Cottonseed is one of the major sources of vegetable oil. Analysis of the
dynamic changes of fatty acid components and the genes regulating the composition of fatty …

Cottonseed oil accumulated dramatically from 20 days post-anthesis (DPA) to 30 DPA in
Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.). To reveal the gene network of oil accumulation and …

To enrich our knowledge about gene network of fatty acid biosynthesis in cottonseed, we
conducted comparative transcriptome to reveal the differences in gene expression between …

As the main byproduct of cotton fiber, the cotton seed yields about 1.6 times that of fiber, with
its oil rich in unsaturated fatty acids, mainly linoleic acid. It is desirable for breeders to …
