The evolution of spinnable cotton fiber entailed prolonged development and a novel metabolism.

PLoS genetics - 1 Feb 2008

Abstract excerpt

A central question in evolutionary biology concerns the developmental processes by which new phenotypes arise. An exceptional example of evolutionary innovation is the single-celled seed trichome in Gossypium ("cotton fiber"). We have used fiber development in Gossypium as a system to understand how morphology can rapidly evolve. Fiber has undergone considerable morphological changes between the short, tightly...
