Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) Breeding Strategies
2019This chapter is focused on the achievements and future prospects of cotton breeding and related biotechnology. Traditional plant breeding has been utilized for the development of pure-line selection for high yielding cotton genotypes in segregating generations through the pedigree method.

Chlorophyll a fluorescence as an indicator of heat stress in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)
, 2020Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is a major fibre crop that is greatly affected by climatic factors, especially drought and high temperatures. Excessive temperature (above 30 °C) during the reproductive stage (flowering) negatively affects cotton yield ...

Genetically Transformed Cotton (Gossypium Hirsutum L.) Plants
Bio/Technology, 1987Genetically engineered plants of commercial cotton varieties were obtained by Agrobacterium–mediated transformation. Inoculated tissues selected on kanamycin–containing medium gave rise to transformed calli that were resistant to the antibiotic and expressed the neomycin phosphotransferase enzyme.

Transformation of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) via particle bombardment
Plant Cell Reports, 1990Embryogenic suspension cultures of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) were subjected to particle bombardment, where high density particles carrying plasmid DNA were accelerated towards the embryogenic plant cells. The plasmid DNA coating the particles encoded hygromycin resistance.

Characterization of two cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L) invertase genes
Molecular Biology Reports, 2010Two cotton vacuolar-invertase genes were identified and sequenced. Both genes had seven exons, including an unusually small second exon typical of acid invertases. These genes encode peptides with many features shared by acid invertases from other species including, leader sequences that probably target the peptide to the vacuole, active site motifs ...

The yield potential of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)
Field Crops Research, 2015Abstract Yield potential studies can assist in identifying the production constraints in any cropping system and economics at the farm level dictate a continual need to increase yield and profit for most crops. Cotton is a tropical indeterminate perennial grown as an annual crop for fibre (lint), oil and meal for animal feed. Its growth habit means a

Photosynthesis of cotton canopies (Gossypium hirsutum L.)
Field Crops Research, 1982Abstract An analysis is presented of single leaf photosynthesis of cotton as influenced by plant and environmental factors. The results are incorporated into a canopy photosynthesis model, which takes leaf ageing, azimuth preference, effect of open canopy and row orientation into account.

GENETIC DIVERGENCE IN UPLAND COTTON (Gossypium hirsutum L.)
Madras Agricultural Journal, 1994Genetic diversity in a population of forty genotypes of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) assessed using Mahalanobis D statistic, indicated considerable diversity in the material studied. Five characters were studied and utilized for multivariate analysis. The genotypes were grouped into six clusters.
