Phenotypic diversity and evolutionary innovation ultimately trace to variation in genomic
sequence and rewiring of regulatory networks. Here, we constructed a pan-genome of the …

Allotetraploid cotton (Gossypium) species represents a model system for the study of plant
polyploidy, molecular evolution, and domestication. Here, chromosome-scale genome …

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 …

Over the last eight years, the volume of whole genome, gene expression, SNP genotyping,
and phenotype data generated by the cotton research community has exponentially …

Cotton produces natural fiber for the textile industry. The genetic effects of genomic structural
variations underlying agronomic traits remain unclear. Here, we generate two high-quality …

Summary Sea Island cotton (Gossypium barbadense) is the source of the world's finest fibre
quality cotton, yet relatively little is understood about genetic variations among diverse …

Crop wild relatives are an important reservoir of natural biodiversity. However, incorporating
wild genetic diversity into breeding programs is often hampered by reproductive barriers and …

Transposable element (TE) amplification has been recognized as a driving force mediating
genome size expansion and evolution, but the consequences for shaping 3D genomic …

Many of genome features which could help unravel the often complex post-speciation
evolution of closely related species are obscured because of their location in chromosomal …

With the increasing amount of cotton omics data, breeding scientists are confronted with the
question of how to use massive cotton data to mine effective breeding information. Here, we …
