New Developments in Cotton Technologies
نویسنده
چکیده
Several new developments are likely to occur in the cotton industry during the next decade. Obviously, the impacts of emerging technologies will vary among different regions of the world. However, any new development will likely impact most other cotton-growing areas. To gain a broader perspective, I have consulted experts in various disciplines for assistance. I will summarize my perspectives on new developments in five general areas: Genetics, Pest Control, Growth Management, Cotton Equipment, and Cotton Utilization.

Narrow genetic base and complex allotetraploid genome of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is stimulating efforts to avail required polymorphism for marker based breeding. The availability of draft genome sequence of G. raimondii and G. arboreum and next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies facilitated the development of high-throughput marker technologies in cotton. The concepts of genetic di...
متن کاملDetermination of genetic uniformity in transgenic cotton plants using DNA markers (RAPD and ISSR) and SDS-PAGE
One concern about using transgenic plants is the genetic variation that occurred from theirs tissue culture and regeneration. Molecular markers are an important element for efficient and effective determination of genetic variation. The present work was carried out to assess the genetic uniformity of transgenic cottons (Bt and chitinase lines), using RAPD, ISSR molecular markers and SDS-PAGE an...
