Interspecific hybridization has contributed significantly to land diversity, species evolution,
and crops' domestication, including upland cotton, the cultivated form of Gossypium …

Interspecific chromosome substitution is among the most powerful means of introgression
and steps toward quantitative trait locus (QTL) identification. By reducing the genetic “noise” …

In this association mapping study, a tri-species hybrid,[Gossypium arboreum×(G. hirsutum×
G. aridum) 2], was crossed with MD51ne (G. hirsutum) and progeny from the cross were …

The improvement of fiber quality is an essential goal in cotton breeding. In our previous
studies, several quantitative trait loci (QTLs) contributing to improved fiber quality were …

The Gossypium genus has more than 50 species that are available to use as germplasm; 5
species, including G. hirsutum, are allotetraploids while the rest are diploid species. The 7 …

We recently released a set of 17 chromosome substitution (CS-B) lines (2 n= 52) that contain
Gossypium barbadense L. doubled-haploid line '3-79'germplasm systematically …

The 2 species G. hirsutum and G. arboreum were crossed and triploid hybrid (AAD) was
developed as a first step of crossing. The triploid is sterile and its hybridity was confirmed …

Cotton has been a major source of fiber, edible oil, and animal feed for hundreds of years.
The unique properties of cotton over synthetic fibers have made it a favorite choice of the …

Interspecific hybridization among species of cotton has lead to improvement in productivity,
earliness, fibre quality and resistance to pests and diseases. However, wide crosses is often …

Cotton has been sporadically cultivated in Australia since the late 1700s with varying
degrees of success until the advent of the modern intensively managed and mechanised …
