Abstract excerpt
Single cotton boll weight (BW) and seed index (SI, 100-seed weight) are key determinants of lint and seed yield, yet their genetic basis remains poorly understood. Here, a stable interploidy introgression line with small boll from Gossypium arboreum in Gossypium hirsutum, NB298, was employed to map quantitative trait loci (QTLs) of BW and SI. A moderate/minor-effect QTL on ChrA05 was preliminary mapped in the F2...
