The identification of simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers associated with salt tolerance in cotton contributes to molecular assisted selection (MAS), which can improve the efficiency of traditional breeding. In this study, 134 samples of upland cotton cultivars were selected. The seedling emergence rates were tested under 0.3.. Read More»

Construction and characterization of a bacterial artificial chromosome library for the allotetraploid Gossypium tomentosum
Authors: F. Liu, Y.H. Wang, H.Y. Gao, C.Y. Wang, Z.L. Zhou, X.Y. Cai, X.X. Wang, Z.S. Zhang and K.B. Wang
Gossypium tomentosum is a wild allotetraploid species with the (AD)5 genome. It is characterized by many useful traits including finer fiber fineness, drought tolerance, and Fusarium and Verticillium resistance. We constructed the first bacterial artificial chromosome library for Gossypium tomentosum. With high quality and broad coverage, this library inc.. Read More»

Estimation of genetic distance based on RAPDs between 11 cotton accessions varying in heat tolerance
Authors: A.I. Khan, I.A. Khan, F.S. Awan, H.A. Sadaqat and S. Bahadur
The genetic distance of 11 cotton genotypes varying in heat tolerance was studied using RAPD markers. Fifty-three random decamer primers were used for the estimation of genetic distance. Among the 53 RAPD primers, which were custom synthesized by GeneLink Inc., UK, 32 were polymorphic and 21 were monomorphic. The 32 polymorphi.. Read More»
