Multidimensional roles of flavonoids in background of Gossypium hirsutum

AtWuschel Promotes Formation of the Embryogenic Callus in Gossypium hirsutum

Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is one of the most recalcitrant species for in vitro plant regeneration through somatic embryogenesis. Callus from only a few cultivars can produce embryogenic callus (EC), but the mechanism is not well elucidated. Here we screened a cultivar, CRI24, with high efficiency of EC produce. The expression of genes relevant to EC production was analyzed between the ...

The biology and ecology of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) in Australia

The Anomalous Behavior of the Ghost Spot of GOSSYPIUM ANOMALUM in Amphidiploid GOSSYPIUM HIRSUTUM.

ILD Gossypium anomalum Wawrs. and Peyr. among Gossypium species whas anomalous petal spot inheritance. Its petal spot involves two independently inherited genes; a ghost spot gene interacts with a spotless gene making a large anthocyanin area at the base of a petal (SILOW 1941). In the two cultivated Asiatic diploid species red petal spot involves three closely linked genesmargin. ghost spot, a...

Transformation of Gossypium hirsutum and Gossypium barbadense by Rhizobium rhizogenes: Hairy root induction and gossypol production

Introgression of resistance to reniform nematode (Rotylenchulus reniformis) into upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) from Gossypium arboreum and a G. hirsutum/Gossypium aridum bridging line

Gossypium hirsutum L. is the predominant cotton of commerce and all cultivars of this species are susceptible to the reniform nematode, Rotylenchulus reniformis. To introgress resistance to R. reniformis into the tetraploid 2(AD1) G. hirsutum, a resistant diploid A2-genome Gossypium arboreum accession (A2190) was crossed with a hexaploid 2((AD1)D4) bridging line (G 371) to obtain a tetraploid t...
