“…Through manipulation of PHYA1 expression using RNAi, we have achieved simultaneous improvement of several important traits, such as fibre length and early maturity, without negatively affecting other key parameters such as yield-a goal that has largely eluded conventional breeding. For instance, introgression of superior fibre quality traits from Pima cotton (G. barbadense) into Upland (G. hirsutum) cultivars using interspecies genetic hybridization is challenging owing to segregation distortion and linkage drag that often results in introgressed progenies that are late maturing or have poor agronomic quality 30 . Application of RNAi has allowed us to effectively solve these fundamental problems, and rapidly improve maturity, flowering, yield and major fibre quality traits, thus transforming commercial Upland varieties into more long-stapled, productive and early-maturing cultivars.…”

“…It has also been observed that G. raimondii (D 5 ) and G. gossypioides (D 5 ) are genetically more comparable to G. hirsutum (AD 2 ) and G. barbadense (AD 2 ) (Kebede et al 2007). In few cytogenetic studies, it was elucidated that G. herbaceum is more comparable to the ancestor species of tetraploid cotton than G. arboreum (Endrizzi et al 1985;Wendel 1989;Percival and Kohel 1990).…”

“…The allotetraploid cotton species, which include two commercially important cultivated species, Gossypium hirsutum L. and G. barbadense L., were generated by A-and D-compound genomes (Fryxell 1992). The best living models of the ancestral A-and D-genome parents are G. herbaceum and G. raimondii, respectively (Endrizzi et al 1985). A-genome diploid cottons produce spinnable fibers and have been cultivated, while D-genome species produce very short and appressed fibers.…”
