Reproductive Status of Boll Weevils During Season and Off‐Season of Cotton in the Cerrado of Brazil

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 2, Page 113-122, February 2026.
Cotton boll weevils were monitored continuously and counted weekly over two agricultural years in the Brazilian Cerrado. The survey resulted in a total of 94 519 adults captured in approximately similar percentages of females and males during both the growing and off‐seasons.

The cotton historical lines project—Part I: History and field evaluation

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Common garden experiments have provided great insights into crop adaptation across many systems. Cotton (Gossypium spp.) cultivars have changed in the 20th and 21st centuries, but breeders have not quantified the degree of these changes. We synthesized a panel of 164 non‐genetically modified genotypes, from the private and public sectors ...

Row Crops and the U.S. Agricultural Trade Deficit: Recent Trends and Policy Issues

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 47, Issue 5, Page 1759-1773, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Row crops such as soybeans, corn, wheat, and cotton are the backbone of the U.S. farm sector, accounting for around $60 billion of exports in 2023. While U.S. row crop exports remain robust, growing concerns over the rising U.S. agricultural trade deficit underscore the need to appraise the ongoing market and policy dynamics affecting the ...

Stink Bugs and Leaffooted Bugs Are Important Fruit, Nut, Seed and Vegetable Pests

open access: yesEDIS, 2005
Stink bugs (Pentatomidae) and leaffooted bugs (Coreidae) are important direct pests of many seed, fruit, vegetable and nut crops. Recently they have become serious pests of cotton because of the reduction in pesticide use resulting from the eradication ...

Factors affecting U.S. sorghum and cotton exports: A dynamic ARDL simulation approach

open access: yesJournal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 285-303, September 2025.
Abstract The U.S. faces increasing competition from Argentina and Brazil for sorghum and cotton exports. Using a dynamic Auto Regressive Distributed Lag model, this study shows that U.S. sorghum and cotton exports are positively affected by area harvested, yield, and export price.

Recent Advances in Cotton Transformation and Genome Editing Techniques: The Prospects and Challenges

open access: yesModern Agriculture, Volume 3, Issue 1, June 2025.
Application of transformed cotton plants. Cotton transformation yields desirable traits, including: (1) strengthening insect and pest resistance, (2) enhancing the resistance to abiotic stress such as drought, heat, cold and salinity, (3) improving herbicide tolerance, (4) increasing the cotton lint and seed yield, (5) boosting nutrient uptake ...
