Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) Spectroscopy and Simple Algorithm Analysis for Rapid and Non-Destructive Assessment of Cotton Fiber Maturity and Crystallinity for Plant Mapping [PDF]

open access: yesSensors
Information on boll distribution within a cotton plant is critical to evaluate the adaptation and response of cotton plants to environmental and biotic stress in cotton production. Cotton researchers have applied available conventional fiber measurements,

Deep Multimodal Phenotyping and Sensor Fusion for Preharvest Cotton Quality Assessment and Agricultural Economic Decision Support [PDF]

open access: yesSensors
Cotton fiber quality is shaped during boll development, boll opening, fluffing, and harvesting, but current assessment still relies largely on manual field inspection and postharvest laboratory testing.

Genome-Wide Identification and Characterization of the PP2C Gene Family in Gossypium barbadense Reveals Potential Candidates for Breeding Improved Stress Resistance, Fiber Character, and Early Maturing Cotton Varieties [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology
The protein phosphatase 2C (PP2C) gene family plays vital roles in plant growth and stress responses, yet remains inadequately characterized in cotton, particularly in Gossypium barbadense renowned for its superior fiber quality.

Evidence for thermosensitivity of the cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) immature fiber (im) mutant via hypersensitive stomatal activity.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Thickness of cotton fiber, referred to as fiber maturity, is a key determinant of fiber quality, lint yield, and textile performance. The cotton immature fiber (im) mutant has been used to study fiber maturity since its fiber is thinner than the wild ...
