Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Naturally colored cotton has gained renewed interest due to increasing environmental concerns over synthetic dyes. The genetic regulatory characteristics of fiber color are discovered by two perspectives in this study. RESULTS: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified two major loci D11: 24.3-24.7 Mb and A07: 20.4-22.3 Mb controlling fiber color variation. Integrative QTL mapping and...
