Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The node of the first fruiting branch (NFFB) is an important precocious trait in cotton. Many studies have been conducted on the localization of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and genes related to fiber quality and yield, but there has been little attention to traits related to early maturity, especially the NFFB, in cotton. RESULTS: To identify the QTL associated with the NFFB in cotton, a BC4F2...
