Genome-Wide Resequencing Identification of Loci Associated with Early Maturity in Upland Cotton and Functional Validation of GhGATA9
Early maturity is an important agronomic trait in upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.), contributing to an increased cropping index, avoidance of extreme weather, and facilitation of mechanized cotton production. In this study, 15 early-maturing and 15 late-maturing upland cotton accessions were subjected to whole-gen...
