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

Cotton roots are the major source of gossypol biosynthesis and accumulation
Background Gossypol is a specific secondary metabolite in Gossypium species. It not only plays a critical role in development and self-protection of cotton plants, but also can be used as important anti-cancer and male contraceptive compound.
