Identification of molecular markers associated to new sources of resistance to the root-knot nematode in cotton : S02T04 [PDF]
, 2013 The root-knot nematode (RKN) Meloidogyne incognita is a major constraint in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) production in numerous countries. Control of RKN has been hampered by the lack of options for crop rotation and even more, by the lack of high ...

Endogenous levels of reducing sugars, free amino acids and phenols during various stages of in vitro culture of cotton (Gossypium Spp.) [PDF]
, 2010 Somatic embryogenesis is widely preferred as the regeneration route for in vitro studies in cotton. However, the regeneration efficiency through this approach is low; a problem that is believed to be as a result of the biochemical properties of the ...

Rapid plant regeneration from cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)
Chinese Science Bulletin, 2000 A simple and rapid regeneration method of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. cv. Xinluzao 4) is described. The proper use of phytohormone KT and IBA validly promoted the survival rate of test-tube plants and shortened the period of culture in combination with the techniques of micro-propagation and graft.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Glomerella leaf spot (GLS), a fungal disease caused by Colletotrichum fructicola, is a major destructive disease of apples but research on control measures is limited. Melatonin (MT) is a phytohormone‐like compound that affects plant growth and stress response but is prone to light‐induced degradation, resulting in low stability and efficacy ...

Identification of microRNAs and their targets in four Gossypium species using RNA sequencing
Current Plant Biology, 2018 MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding endogenous riboregulators that play significant roles in plant growth, development, metabolism, defense, and stress responses. Upland cotton is best known for its economic value as natural fiber and oil. It is also
