Over the years, plant breeders have improved cotton via conventional breeding methods,
but these methods are time-consuming. To complement classical breeding and, at times …

Wild cotton species can contribute to a valuable gene pool for genetic improvement, such as
genes related to salt tolerance. However, reproductive isolation of different species poses an …

Water is the limiting factor for plant growth, it severely affects the crop productivity. Cotton
has been resistant to drought, yet it is one of the biggest factors, behind its low productivity …
