Abstract excerpt
Genetic improvement in yield and fiber quality is needed for worldwide cotton production. Identification of molecular markers associated with fiber-related traits can facilitate selection for these traits in breeding. This study was designed to identify associations between SSR markers and fiber traits using an exotic germplasm population, species polycross (SP), derived from multiple crosses among Gossypium...
