Genomic Differentiation Between Gossypium barbadense and G.hirsutum

摘要

@@ Sea Island cotton (Gossypium barbadense L.) has superior fiber quality properties,while Uplandcotton (G.hirsutum L.) is characterized by its high yield.Although these two species are easilycrossed,it is difficult to integrate their superior genes.It will be very helpful to molecular breedingand evolution study in Gossypium to reveal genomic differentiation between G.barbadense and G.hir-suture.An enhanced genetic map consisting of 2247 loci and covering 3514.6 cM,with an average in-ter-marker distance of 1.5 cM has been developed.
