Abstract:Exploiting genetic diversity of cotton in tolerance to low-potassium (K) is desired for sustainable production. The objective of the present study was to compare the variation in tolerance to low-K between Liaomian 18, a non-insect-resistant cotton cultivar, and NuCOTN99B, a transgenic insect-resistant cotton cultivar from American, hydroponically grown in growth chamber and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms controlling that. When K application was sufficient (2.5 mmol L −1 ), there was no significant dif… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
