Abstract:Premature senescence at the late developmental stage occurs frequently in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) production in North China. It is desirable to develop elite cotton cultivars with non-premature senescence and high photosynthetic capacity. In this study, cDNAamplified fragment length polymorphism (cDNA-AFLP) analysis was employed to identify the genes that are related to senescence in cotton. Using 64 primer combinations, about 3000 cDNA fragments were generated, and among them 42 had a markedly up-regul… Show more
