Glandless acala cotton: More susceptible to insects

California Agriculture, 1977
Commercially grown Acala cottons (Gossypium hirsutum L.), like most other species of the genus Gossypium, have evolved an effective chemical resistance that deters most plant-feeding animals.

The Genetic Wiring of Plant Trichomes: From Initiation to Fate Specification. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
Plant trichomes are not just simple hairs but metabolic powerhouses shaped by complex genetic programs. While the MYB‐bHLH‐WD40 module is well studied in Arabidopsis, recent findings reveal that HD‐Zip IV transcription factors drive multicellular and glandular trichome development through dose‐dependent mechanisms.

Glandless, a tomato HD-ZIP transcription factor, is important for the gland formation of type VI trichomes. [PDF]

Plant J
Significance Statement We studied a tomato EMS‐mutant plant, glandless, that has glandless type VI glandular trichome. The gene underlying this phenotype is a member of the HD‐ZIP subfamily I, which regulates the development and specialized metabolism of type VI glandular trichomes.

The GoSPGF-GoPGF-GhWRKYs transcriptional cascade positively regulates pigment gland formation in the stem of upland cotton. [PDF]

Plant Biotechnol J
Summary The pigment gland in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is a specialized structure that serves as a reservoir for gossypol and its derivatives. The morphogenesis of the pigment gland is complex and involves sophisticated but poorly understood interactions among genes that regulate cell differentiation and development.

Nutritional composition, antioxidant activity and gossypol level of Nazilli glandless cottonseed, cottonseed kernel and their cold-pressed meal

Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 2023
Background The study was conducted to determine the nutrient composition and gossypol levels of glandless cottonseed (GCS), glandless cottonseed kernel (GCSK) glandless cottonseed meal (GCSM) and cottonseed kernel meal (GCSKM) obtained by cold pressing ...

Utilising cottonseed in animal feeding: A dialectical perspective

Modern Agriculture, Volume 1, Issue 2, Page 112-121, September 2023., 2023
This paper discusses the potential application of cottonseed as a feed source. Glandless cottonseed, devoid of gossypol, can be utilised as a regular livestock feed following appropriate processing methods. Cottonseed containing gossypol, particularly (+)‐gossypol, can serve as a short‐term ‘medicinal‐feeding homologous’ feed to prevent or treat viral ...

Efficient genotype‐independent cotton genetic transformation and genome editing

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 65, Issue 4, Page 907-917, April 2023., 2023
The shoot apical meristem cell‐mediated transformation system SAMT, an efficient genotype‐independent genetic transformation system for cotton, sidesteps the need for somatic embryogenesis and paves an effective alternative way to generate transgenic and gene‐edited plants in cotton and other recalcitrant dicot plant species for genetic improvement ...

Registration of 17 upland cotton germplasm lines with improved resistance to Fusarium wilt race 4 and good fiber quality

Journal of Plant Registrations, Volume 17, Issue 1, Page 152-163, January 2023., 2023
Abstract With Fusarium wilt (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum W.C. Snyder & H.N. Hansen) race 4 (FOV4) formally identified in proximity to the High Plains of west Texas—the largest upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) producing region in the United States—the need to develop cultivars resistant to FOV4 has become urgent.
