Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Verticillium wilt (VW), a soil-borne fungal disease caused by Verticillium dahliae, causes severe yield losses in cotton production in China. Due to the scarcity of highly resistant upland cotton germplasm, the genetic improvement of VW resistance has progressed slowly. RESULTS: In this study, we combined QTL mapping and bulked segregant analysis sequencing (BSA-seq) in an F₂ population derived from a...
