Plant growth and development are greatly affected by the environment. Many genes have
been identified to be involved in regulating plant development and adaption of abiotic stress …

Plant trichomes, protrusions formed from specialized aboveground epidermal cells, provide
protection against various biotic and abiotic stresses. Trichomes can be unicellular …

Cotton fibre is a unicellular seed trichome, and lint fibre initials per seed as a factor
determines fibre yield. However, the mechanisms controlling fibre initiation from ovule …

Strigolactones (SLs) are a class of phytohormones that regulate plant shoot branching and
adventitious root development. However, little is known regarding the role of SLs in …

Plant architecture is a key determinant of crop productivity and adaptation. The highly
conserved microRNA319 (miR319) family functions in various biological processes, but little …

TCP transcription factors play important regulatory roles in plant growth and development;
however, their function in response to salt and drought stress in sea-island cotton …

Cellulose is the most abundant unique biopolymer in nature with widespread applications in
bioenergy and high‐value bioproducts. The large transmembrane‐localized cellulose …

Cotton (Gossypium spp.) is an important natural fiber plant. Lint percentage (LP) is one of
