Microdissection of the Ah01 chromosome in upland cotton and microcloning of resistance gene anologs from the single chromosome

Hereditas, 2017
Background Chromosome microdissection is one of the most important techniques in molecular cytogenetic research. Cotton (Gossypium Linnaeus, 1753) is the main natural fiber crop in the world.

Is quinoa‐farming sustainable in marginal environments? Social, economical and environmental aspects

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 14, Page 8315-8328, November 2026.
Abstract Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an Andean grain crop introduced as a novel crop to many parts of the world in recent years. Recognized for nutritious seeds and high abiotic stress tolerance, it has been promoted as an element of climate‐resilient agriculture, particularly in marginal environments.

The Late Agricultural Development of Central Arabian Oases—Archaeobotanical and Archaeozoological Studies of the al‐Kharj Oasis

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 317-355, November 2026.
ABSTRACT While oasis settlements emerged during the Bronze Age in Eastern and Northern Arabia, the settlement process in Central Arabia was different. Excavations at al‐Yamāma—main ancient settlement of the al‐Kharj oasis (Riyadh Province, KSA)—suggest that the latter did not emerge before the second half of the first millennium BCE.

GhBRX.1, GhBRX.2, and GhBRX4.3 improve resistance to salt and cold stress in upland cotton

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionAbiotic stress during growth readily reduces cotton crop yield. The different survival tactics of plants include the activation of numerous stress response genes, such as BREVIS RADIX (BRX).MethodsIn this study, the BRX gene family of upland ...

Can Competition‐Based Programs Promote Conservation in Agriculture? Evidence From the “Most Crop per Drop” Contest

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract This paper evaluates the Arkansas “Most Crop per Drop” Irrigation Yield Contest, a novel competition‐based Extension program designed to increase the adoption of Irrigation Water Management (IWM) practices among farmers. We use survey data to classify producers into three categories: contestants, informed non‐participants with some connection ...

Biological Innovation and Productivity Growth in the Antebellum Cotton Economy [PDF]

The Cliometrics literature on slave efficiency has generally focused on static questions. We take a decidedly more dynamic approach. Drawing on the records of 142 plantations with 509 crops years, we show that the average daily cotton picking rate ...

Genome-wide identification and mining elite allele variation of the Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) gene family in upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)

BMC Plant Biology
Background Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) genes belong to the alpha/beta hydrolase superfamily, catalyze the terminal step of triglyceride (TAG) hydrolysis, converting monoacylglycerol (MAG) into free fatty acids and glycerol.

Flagellin FLiS improves the resistance of cotton to Verticillium wilt through the signaling pathways of salicylic acid and jasmonic acid

Frontiers in Plant Science
Verticillium wilt of cotton is a soil-borne vascular bundle disease. There is still a lack of effective methods for controlling and preventing Verticillium wilt of cotton. There are few reports on the research of the mechanism by which flagellin S (FLiS)
