Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: Mapping-by-sequencing and SNP marker analysis were used to fine map the Ligon-lintless-1 ( Li 1 ) short fiber mutation in tetraploid cotton to a 255-kb region that contains 16 annotated proteins. The Ligon-lintless-1 (Li 1 ) mutant of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) has been studied as a model for cotton fiber development since its identification in 1929; however, the causative mutation has not been...
