Comparative population genomics offers an excellent opportunity for unraveling the genetic
history of crop domestication. Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) has long been an …

Cotton, Gossypium hirsutum L., is a plant fibre of significant economic importance, with
seeds providing an additional source of protein in human and animal nutrition. Flavonoids …

The complex allotetraploid genome is one of major challenges in cotton for repressing gene
expression. Developing site-specific DNA mutation is the long-term dream for cotton …

Background How to develop new cotton varieties possessing high yield traits of Upland
cotton and superior fiber quality traits of Sea Island cotton remains a key task for cotton …

Abstract Calcium (Ca2+) is necessary for fiber cell development in cotton (Gossypium
hirsutum), both as a cell wall structural component and for environmental signaling …

Background Knowledge of plant secondary cell wall (SCW) regulation and deposition is
mainly based on the Arabidopsis model of a 'typical'lignocellulosic SCW. However, SCWs in …

Background Cotton fibre is a single cell and it is one of the best platforms for unraveling the
genes express during various stages of fibre development. There are reports devoted to …

Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is one of the world's most important fiber crops,
accounting for more than 90% of all cotton production. While their wild progenitors have …

In this study, we comparatively analyzed the 115 Hsp70 genes identified in Gossypium
raimondii, Gossypium hirsutum and Gossypium arboreum genomes. Those Hsp70 genes …
