Abstract excerpt
Improving cotton fibre quality is a major breeding goal for Upland cotton in China.To investigate the genetic mechanisms of fibre quality, a diverse panel of 403 Upland cotton accessions was grown, and the fibre quality traits were measured in six different environments. Genotyping was performed with genomewide simple sequence repeats. A total of 201 markers were polymorphic and generated 394 allele loci, and 403...
