Abstract excerpt
Vertcillium wilt (VW), a soil-borne disease causing cotton yield loss and fiber quality reduction, is a major stumbling block in cotton production. It is a challenging job to detect key genes associated with major quantitative trait loci (QTL) that can be used to develop VW-resistant varieties. In this study, several genome regions associated with major QTL controlling VW resistance were fine mapped by...
