Abstract:Background Cotton is one of the most important cash crops in the world, depending on fiber quality, yield, seed oil and protein content. Identifying QTL for fiber related and other agronomic traits will facilitate the genetic improvement in cotton. Results In this study, forty-seven QTL for fiber related traits were identified across four different environments and six of these QTL were detected in more than one environment, including two for lint percentage (qLP-D03-1 and qLP-D09-1), two for fiber length (qFL… Show more
