Cotton is an irreplaceable economic crop currently domesticated in the human world for its
extremely elongated fiber cells specialized in seed epidermis, which makes it of high …

Many newly created early maturing varieties exhibit poor stress resistance and low yield,
whereas stress-resistant varieties are typically late maturing. For this reason, the …

Polyploidy complicates transcriptional regulation and increases phenotypic diversity in
organisms. The dynamics of genetic regulation of gene expression between coresident …

Background Homoeologs are defined as homologous genes resulting from allopolyploidy.
Bread wheat, Triticum aestivum, is an allohexaploid species with many homoeologs …

Structural variations (SVs) have long been described as being involved in the origin,
adaption, and domestication of species. However, the underlying genetic and genomic …

Cotton is an important economic crop, and many loci for important traits have been
identified, but it remains challenging and time-consuming to identify candidate or causal …

Gossypium, the cotton genus, includes∼ 50 species distributed in tropical and sub-tropical
regions of all continents except Europe. Here we provide a synopsis of the evolutionary …

Introduction The simultaneous improvement of fiber quality and yield for cotton is strongly
limited by the narrow genetic backgrounds of Gossypium hirsutum (Gh) and the negative …

Cultivated plants of Gossypium hirsutum Cav.(cotton) consistently emit low levels of volatile
organic compounds, primarily mono-and sesquiterpenoids, which are produced and stored …

Structural variations (SVs) are critical factors affecting genome evolution and important traits.
However, identification results and functional analyses of SVs in upland cotton are rare …
