The objective of this study was to analyze the genetic diversity among colored cotton fiber genotypes using technological characteristics fiber, seed yield and percentage identify potential parents with high performance. experiment conducted in Brazilian city Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, during 2016/2017 harvest. Twelve were used a randomized block design. that evaluated included micronaire, matur...

In this study the artificial pollination of pistachio was investigated. Two types of pollen of local selective genotypes (Q1 and Q2) which were different pollinizers were used. The experiment had six treatments. Qazvini and Ohadi cultivars were pollinated with supplementary pollinations as treatment which was covered with cotton bag, natural pollination as a control which was not covered and tw...

The genotypic diversity of two Spanish isolates of Helicoverpa armigera single nucleopolyhedrovirus (HearSNPV) was evaluated with the aim of identifying mixtures of genotypes with improved insecticidal characteristics for control of the cotton bollworm. Two genotypic variants, HearSP1A and HearSP1B, were cloned in vitro from the most pathogenic wild-type isolate of the Iberian Peninsula, HearSN...

Raman spectroscopy (RS) is a vibrational spectroscopy. This work reported the RS spectral characteristics of fiber and seed six cotton (Gossypium sp.) genotypes differing in length. While spectra samples were dominated by cellulose-related peaks, cottonseed featured bands related to oil, protein, carbohydrate, lignin components. Principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that first two princip...
