Abstract excerpt
As high-strength cotton fibers are critical components of high quality cotton, developing cotton cultivars with high-strength fibers as well as high yield is a top priority for cotton development. Recently, chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) have been developed from high-yield Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) crossed with high-quality Sea Island cotton (G. barbadense). Here, we constructed a CSSL...
