Journal ArticleDOI
Lignin metabolism has a central role in the resistance of cotton to the wilt fungus Verticillium dahliae as revealed by RNA-Seq-dependent transcriptional analysis and histochemistry
TL;DR: A critical role for lignin was believed to contribute to the resistance of cotton to disease and the utility of RNA-Seq for gene expression profiles during the cotton defence response was demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reference genome sequences of two cultivated allotetraploid cottons, Gossypium hirsutum and Gossypium barbadense
Maojun Wang,Lili Tu,Daojun Yuan,Daojun Yuan,De Zhu,Chao Shen,Jianying Li,Fuyan Liu,Liuling Pei,Pengcheng Wang,Guannan Zhao,Zhengxiu Ye,Hui Huang,Feilin Yan,Yizan Ma,Lin Zhang,Min Liu,Jiaqi You,Yicheng Yang,Zhenping Liu,Fan Huang,Baoqi Li,Ping Qiu,Qinghua Zhang,Longfu Zhu,Shuangxia Jin,Xiyan Yang,Ling Min,Guoliang Li,Ling-Ling Chen,Hongkun Zheng,Keith Lindsey,Zhongxu Lin,Joshua A. Udall,Xianlong Zhang +34 more
TL;DR: Improved genome assemblies of allotetraploid cotton species Gossypium hirsutum and GOSSypium barbadense provide insights into cotton evolution and inform the construction of introgression lines used to identify loci associated with fiber quality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Asymmetric subgenome selection and cis -regulatory divergence during cotton domestication
Maojun Wang,Lili Tu,Min Lin,Zhongxu Lin,Pengcheng Wang,Qingyong Yang,Zhengxiu Ye,Chao Shen,Jianying Li,Lin Zhang,Xiaolin Zhou,Xinhui Nie,Zhonghua Li,Kai Guo,Yizan Ma,Cong Huang,Shuangxia Jin,Longfu Zhu,Xiyan Yang,Ling Min,Daojun Yuan,Qinghua Zhang,Keith Lindsey,Xianlong Zhang +23 more
TL;DR: A variation map for 352 wild and domesticated cotton accessions is described and evidence showing asymmetric subgenome domestication for directional selection of long fibers is provided, providing new insights into the evolution of gene organization, regulation and adaptation in a major crop.
Journal ArticleDOI
The genome sequence of Sea-Island cotton (Gossypium barbadense) provides insights into the allopolyploidization and development of superior spinnable fibres.
Daojun Yuan,Zhonghui Tang,Maojun Wang,Wenhui Gao,Lili Tu,Xin Jin,Ling-Ling Chen,Yonghui He,Lin Zhang,Longfu Zhu,Yang Li,Qiqi Liang,Zhongxu Lin,Xiyan Yang,Nian Liu,Shuangxia Jin,Yang Lei,Yuanhao Ding,Guoliang Li,Xiaoan Ruan,Yijun Ruan,Yijun Ruan,Xianlong Zhang +22 more
TL;DR: A high-quality assembly of the 2.57 gigabase genome of G. barbadense is presented, suggesting an integrated regulatory mechanism of CesA genes from At and Dt subgenomes for the primary and secondary cellulose biosynthesis of cotton fibre in a “relay race”-like fashion.
Journal ArticleDOI
High efficient multisites genome editing in allotetraploid cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) using CRISPR/Cas9 system.
Pengcheng Wang,Jun Zhang,Lin Sun,Yizan Ma,Jiao Xu,Sijia Liang,Jinwu Deng,Jiafu Tan,Qinghua Zhang,Lili Tu,Henry Daniell,Shuangxia Jin,Xianlong Zhang +12 more
TL;DR: The results prove that the CRISPR/Cas9 system is highly efficient and reliable for allotetraploid cotton genome editing.
