Section: Ratoon Cultivation Of Perennial and Annual Cotton For Breedingmentioning

“…In subtropical frost-free areas, annual cotton cultivars with high yield and good fiber quality grafted onto perennial species with strong resistance to stress, such as drought and low temperature, are conducive to perennial cultivation (Zhang et al, 2013 , 2022 ). Annual cotton cultivated into perennial forms by this method could undergo more growth cycles than normal ratooning crops due to the use of perennial species as rootstocks (Zhang et al, 2022 ). In addition, the utilization of grafted and perennially maintained male sterility for the production of cotton hybrids has the advantage of eliminating the need for maintainer lines in standard methods and saving agricultural material for sowing, thus reducing the cost of seed production for cotton hybrids.…”

“…Producing inexpensive hybrid F 1 cotton seeds with high purity and heterosis has significance in commercial breeding. This production approach offers the highest economic potential for cultivating ratoon cotton in frost-free regions (Zhang et al, 2020a , 2022 ). There was no difference in yield and fiber quality between the hybrid F 1 of the male-sterile line “Dong A” with and without ratoon cultivation crossed with the same male parent (Zhang and Zhou, 2009 ; Zhang et al, 2010 ).…”

“…Most of the existing male sterility used in production has the genetic background of wild cotton, such as CMS-D2 and CMS-D8 (Zhang et al, 2019 ). Some wild cotton lines become sterile after transplanting from the origin (Zhang et al, 2022 ), showing traits such as non-flowering, non-dehiscence of anthers, and self-incompatibility. Through distant hybridization, doubling, and saturation backcrossing, some CMS mutant lines can be screened out (Zheng et al, 2019 ).…”

“…Cotton is an industrial textile crop and the most widely grown natural fiber crop (Zhang et al, 2022 ). Excellent varieties are the basis for high cotton yields, especially those developed in the 1990's, when the breeding of Bt cotton saved cotton production, which was almost destroyed by bollworm.…”

Cotton production is challenged by high costs with multiple management and material inputs including seed, pesticide, and fertilizer application. The production costs can be decreased and profits can be increased by developing efficient crop management strategies, including perennial cotton ratoon cultivation. This review focuses on the role of ratoon cultivation in cotton productivity and breeding. In areas that are frost-free throughout the year, when the soil temperature is suitable for cotton growth in spring, the buds of survived plants begin to sprout, and so their flowering and fruiting periods are approximately 4–6 weeks earlier than those of sown cotton. Due to the absence of frost damage, the ratoon cotton continues to grow, and the renewed plants can offer a higher yield than cotton sown in the following season. Moreover, ratoon cultivation from the last crop without sowing can help conserve seeds, reduce labor inputs, and reduce soil and water loss. In this review, the preservation of perennial cotton germplasm resources, the classification and genome assignment of perennial species in the cotton gene pools, and effective strategies for the collection, preservation, identification, and utilization of perennial cotton germplasms are discussed. Ratoon cultivation is the main driver of cotton production and breeding, especially to maintain male sterility for the utilization and fixation of heterosis. Ratoon cultivation of cotton is worth adopting because it has succeeded in Brazil, China, and India. Therefore, taking advantages of the warm environment to exploit the indeterminant growth habit of perennial cotton for breeding would be an efficiency-increasing, cost-saving, and eco-friendly approach in frost-free regions. In the future, more attention should be given to ratooning perennial cotton for breeding male-sterile lines.

The effects of grafting in response to various biotic and abiotic stressors have been studied, however, the methylation status of small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) genes in heterograft and homograft cotton needs investigation. This study was undertaken to determine grafting effects on DNA methylation of snoRNA genes in Upland cotton. Rootstocks used were Pima 3–79 (Gossypium barbadense acc. Pima 3–79) and Texas Marker-1 (G. hirsutum acc. TM-1), representing two different species with different fiber properties, adaptations, and morphologies. The methylation ratio and differently methylated cytosines (DMCs) of 10935 snoRNA genes in mature seeds of heterograft and homograft cotton samples were studied using the whole genome bisulfite sequencing method. Seedling vigor and seed weight were studied to investigate phenotype alterations that might be associated with altered methylation levels among grafts. Statistically significant DMC differences among gene elements of snoRNA genes and between homograft and heterograft cotton samples were identified in the absence of DNA sequence alterations. DNA methylation alterations of snoRNA genes associated with seedling vigor and 100 seed weight. The majority of snoRNA genes showed higher numbers of mCG + mCHG-DMCs with increased methylation levels in heterograft, while there were higher numbers of mCG + mCHG-DMCs with decreased methylation levels in homograft. Since snoRNAs regulate essential genes for plant growth and development and plant adaptation to different habitats or extreme environments, their altered methylation levels should be related with plant physiology.

Proteome analysis of grafted cotton exposed to low-temperature stress can provide insights into the molecular mechanistic of chilling tolerance in plants. In this study, grafted and non-grafted cotton plants were exposed to chilling stress (10 °C/5 °C) for 7 d. After the stress, rootstock and scion samples were labeled by 8-plex iTRAQ (isobaric Tags for Relative and Absolute Quantification), followed by two-dimensional liquid chromatography separation and tandem mass spectrometry identification. In total, 68 differential proteins were identified that were induced by low-temperature stress and grafting, and these proteins regulate physiological functioning. Under low-temperature stress, in the cotton seedlings, the proteins responded to the MAPK signaling pathway and calcium signaling pathway enhanced, the metabolisms of carbohydrate, lipid, nucleotide, and amino acid had a tendency to intensify, the proteins related to protein folding and degradation were activated, along with the system of antioxidant enzymes to offset cellular oxidative damage. In contrast, chilling stress reduced oxidative phosphorylation, photosynthesis, and carbon fixation. These data indicated that the physiological changes in cotton seedlings comprise a complex biological process, and the ability of plants to resist this stress can be improved after grafting onto a vigorous rootstock, although this was not obvious in the young plants. Further studies of low-temperature stress and/or graft-related differences in proteins could lead to the identification of new genes associated with chilling tolerance in plants. These data provide the basis for further studies on the molecular mechanism of chilling tolerance and the relationship of grafting and chilling tolerance in cotton.
