The application of high-throughput plant phenotyping (HTPP) to continuously study plant populations under relevant growing conditions creates the possibility to more efficiently dissect the genetic basis of dynamic adaptive traits. Toward this end, we employed a field-based HTPP system that deployed sets of sensors to simultaneously measure canopy temperature, reflectance, and height on a cotto...

Abstract Background Cotton is the source of natural fibers globally, fulfilling 90% textile industry's requirements. However, fiber development a complex biological process comprising four stages. Fiber develops from single cell, and cell elongation vital in development. Therefore, it pertinent to understand exploit mechanisms underlying during A previous report about division control protein 4...

GGE biplot technique is one of the most appropriate methods for investigating genotype x environment interaction. A total twenty Egyptian cotton genotypes were tested to evaluate stability and adaptability during two agricultural years at four environments using randomized complete block design with six replications. The analysis variance showed that effect environments, years, genotypes, was h...

In cotton crops, the seed yield significantly contributes with success of any cultivar. However, other traits are considered when an ideotype is pointed out in selection, such as fiber quality traits. The aim this study was to applied genotype by yield*trait (GYT) biplot a multi-environment trial data genotypes and selected best genotypes. For end, thirteen from nineteen trials were assessed. S...

Soil salinity is increasing due to several factors such as climate change and areas with uneven rainfall. This increase in level of compelled the cotton breeders develop a new germplasm that exhibit suitable for salty soil. study aimed determine salt tolerance 50 accessions Gossypium hirsutum hydroponic conditions having three levels NaCl, i.e., 0 mM, 150 200 mM. The experiment was carried out ...

Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is an important cash crop worldwide, including Pakistan. the fibre that plays a vital role in Pakistan's economy. devotes major part to enhancing foreign exchange earnings and contributes 65 percent of total annual by exporting raw material finished products cotton. Identifying parents with higher yield contributing traits essential enhance economic yield. The dia...

Rotylenchulus reniformis resistant LONREN-1×FM966 breeding lines developed at Auburn University have demonstrated that the nematode resistance is accompanied by severe stunting, limited growth, and low yields. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of applying nematicides to selected LONREN breeding lines on R. reniformis nematode populations, plant stunting, and yield. Four ...

Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for yield and drought-related traits were exchanged via marker-assisted selection between elite cultivars of two cotton species, Gossypium barbadense (GB) cv. F-177 and Gossypium hirsutum (GH) cv. Siv'on. Three of the resultant near-isogenic lines (NILs), each introgressed with a different QTL region, expressed an advantage in osmotic adjustment (OA) and other dro...
