Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upland Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is a major cash crop in the world. Cotton improvement can be accomplished by favorable combination of genes in cotton varieties through hybridization. This book covers study of inheritance of different yield contributing and fiber quality traits in upland cotton. Additive-dominance model was applied to understand gene action involved in the traits studied. This work explores the genetic behavior of these traits in upland cotton and will help cotton breeders to choose suitable parents for hybridization in their genetic improvement programs of cotton. This book will also be proved a guide for students of plant breeding and genetics who are working or planning to work on cotton crop.

Book Past  Present and Future Trends in Cotton Breeding

Download or read book Past Present and Future Trends in Cotton Breeding written by Mehboob-Ur- Rahman and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-05-02 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cotton, a source of natural fiber for textile industry, has a long breeding history aiming at increasing cotton fiber yield and its quality. Newly developed cotton varieties poorly respond in low-input environments. Secondly, the impact of changing climate may threaten the cotton production in the future. To address these challenges, efforts toward the development of resilient cotton varieties have been initiated using genetic and modern genomic approaches. In this book, research updates on cotton fiber types and properties, DNA markers for selecting desirable cotton plants, and cotton fiber genomics were compiled. Also, the modern breeding trends including development of transgenic cotton and the biosafety studies and possibilities of improving cotton genome using modern genome editing tools were also compressively discussed.

Download or read book Cotton Precision Breeding written by Mehboob-ur- Rahman and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cotton, the most important natural fiber crop, has been improved by conventional breeding—largely through planned hybridization of different cotton genotypes, since the discovery of Mendelian genetics. All these efforts resulted in the development of resilient high yielding cotton varieties. However, the progress through conventional breeding procedures is slow because of long lag periods for developing a variety, little control over the new genetic combinations, unwanted traits and lack of foolproof performance testing system. Genomic assays discovered over the last two decades have made it possible to understand the “language” of the genome by associating the genes with specific traits. Together with the more recently established gene-editing tools like CRISPR-Cas9, the cotton genome can be tailored much more precisely than ever before. In this regard, genetic information has been harnessed, through (i) sequencing of the progenitor and cultivated cotton species, (ii) ongoing mega pan-genome sequencing projects, (iii) genetic and physical mapping, and (iv) introgression of genes from alien sources, that resulted in the development of resilient cotton cultivars. These technologies have been deployed or are attempting to overcome the challenges of water shortage, excessive heat in most cotton growing regions, infectious diseases and infestation of insect pests, as well as rising production cost, for sustainable cotton production beyond 2030. In this book, new knowledge generated by the cotton research community and its application for developing resilient cotton are comprehensively summarized. This book contributed by well-known cotton researchers is a timely collection of the challenges and successes of precision cotton breeding in a changing environment.

Book Genetic Analysis of Cotton Evaluated Under High Temperature and Water Deficit

Download or read book Genetic Analysis of Cotton Evaluated Under High Temperature and Water Deficit written by Timothy A. Dabbert and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is cultivated in many contrasting production environments and is often subjected to a combination of abiotic stresses such as high temperature (heat) and water deficit (drought) stress. In the present dissertation, two recombinant inbred line populations were constructed from heat-tolerant and -susceptible parental lines and evaluated in multiple environments under the presence of two treatments, well-watered (heat stress) and water-limited in the presence of high temperature (combination of heat and drought stresses). We assessed two agronomic traits, seed cotton yield and lint yield, as well as six fiber traits, lint percent, micronaire, length, strength, uniformity, and elongation. Fiber traits had moderate to very high broad-sense heritabilities, while heritabilities of agronomic traits were lower for both populations in each irrigation regime. Correlations between traits were not effected by the irrigation regimes. A stability analysis across the range of environments tested demonstrated that high seed cotton yield performance and greater stability may play a role in tolerance to the combination of heat and drought stresses. Additionally, we constructed linkage maps for both recombinant inbred line populations and mapped QTL controlling variation all eight traits. A total of 138 QTL were identified across populations for the eight traits. Climate change in the form of rising temperatures and reduced water availability will increase the occurrence of the combination of heat and drought stresses in a farmer's field. Thus, current cotton breeding programs will need to focus on the development of cotton varieties tolerant to heat, drought, and the combination of the two.
