Abstract excerpt
Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) breeding has primarily emphasized fiber yield and quality, yet plant architectural, developmental, and seed morphological traits also play key roles in productivity and management. Here, we dissect the genetic basis of four such traits: plant height (HT), number of nodes with one branch (N1B), days to flowering (DTF), and average surface area per seed (ASAS) using exotic × elite...
