Background Millennia of directional human selection has reshaped the genomic architecture
of cultivated cotton relative to wild counterparts, but we have limited understanding of the …

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

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 …

Large-scale genomic surveys of crop germplasm are important for understanding the
genetic architecture of favorable traits. The genomic basis of geographic differentiation and …

Upland cotton is an important global cash crop for its long seed fibers and high edible oil
and protein content. Progress in cotton genomics promotes the advancement of cotton …

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

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 …

Background Cultivated cotton is an annual fiber crop derived mainly from two perennial
species, Gossypium hirsutum L. or upland cotton, and G. barbadense L., extra long-staple …

Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is the most important natural fiber crop in the world.
The overall genetic diversity among cultivated species of cotton and the genetic changes …

Upland cotton is a model for polyploid crop domestication and transgenic improvement.
Here we sequenced the allotetraploid Gossypium hirsutum L. acc. TM-1 genome by …
