Abstract excerpt
Cotton production in the US faces a serious threat from Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum race 4 (FOV4), a soil-borne fungus causing Fusarium wilt by infecting the roots and vascular system of susceptible cotton, leading to rapid wilting and death. Here, we investigate genetic mechanisms of resistance to FOV4 in the highly resistant upland cotton genotype "U1" using an early-generation segregating biparental...
