“…Goynes et al [48] suggested that secondary wall development starts at 15 dpa. Our results also support an overlap between secondary cell wall formation and fibre elongation, which is in line with several papers that show a considerable overlap between these two phases [26,45,46]; other references [47,49] reported that secondary cell wall thickening does not start until the elongation phase is complete. These differences between reports might be due to the insensitivity of certain methods to measure small increases in fibre wall thickness during the early phases of secondary cell wall formation or to differences between cotton genotypes.…”

“…Flowers were tagged as soon as they appeared, and harvested at the relevant dpa or days after flowering. Fibres from bolls at different developmental stages including green bolls that were 17,20,22,24,26,35,40,45,50, and 55 dpa and one boll that was matured and opened on the plant at 60 dpa were included. Bolls from 12 different plants were studied for all assays.…”

“…Seagull et al [25] showed significant increases in fibre diameter during the first 30 days of fibre development for 4 genotypes from two species (Gossypium hirsutum and Gossypium barbadense); all genotypes started secondary wall synthesis by 20 dpa, as indicated by significant increases in wall birefringence. 5 Ceylan et al [26] studied moisture sorption in developing cotton fibres (Gossypium hirsutum) by dynamic vapour sorption. Two distinct stages of developing cotton fibres were reported:…”

Cotton fibres develop over four stages: initiation, elongation, secondary-wall thickening, and maturation. They develop a significant crystalline structure during the secondary wall thickening stage of development. Cotton fibres were harvested from 17 days to 60 days after flowering (dpa). Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Interferometry, Attenuated Total Reflectance Fourier-transform Infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy, immunofluorescence labelling, and fluorescence spectroscopy were used to characterise the cotton fibres in different stages. It was found that, secondary wall thickening and micronaire remain fairly constant from 17 to 24 dpa, after that time significant change occurs until maturity. Maturity ratio increases as the fibres develop. Birefringence increases rapidly from 17 dpa to 26 dpa, then levels off up to 60 dpa. It is evident by comparing the Lateral Order Index (LOI) and 2 results from the binding of a crystalline-cellulose binding probe (CBM3a) that there is a significant increase in the degree of cellulose crystallinity from 17 dpa to 26 dpa. Hydrogen Bond Intensity (HBI) increased to 24 dpa and decreased from 24 to 40 dpa indicating significant changes in inter-molecular hydrogen bonds. From 40 to 60 dpa an increase of HBI was observed. It is concluded that during the maturation stage of cotton fibre development, water loss from lumen allows the cellulose chains to come closer together and to form intermolecular hydrogen-bonds. TEM, Interferometry, ATR-FTIR spectroscopy, and immunofluorescence labelling combined with fluorescence spectroscopy, were demonstrated to be useful techniques in quantifying physical changes in cotton fibres during development, offering advantages over traditional analytical techniques.

“…In recent years, when the use of automated sorption balances has become more widespread, the high RH from which desorption is initiated is typically between 90 and 96% (Ceylan et al 2014(Ceylan et al , 2012Cordin et al 2017;Hill et al 2009Hill et al , 2012bHimmel and Mai 2015;Hosseinpourpia et al 2016;Jalaludin et al 2010;Kymäläinen et al 2015;Okubayashi et al 2005a, b;Popescu et al 2014;Popescu and Hill 2013;Shi and Avramidis 2017;Simón et al 2017;Xie et al 2011). However, using this measurement procedure, it is not hysteresis between desorption and absorption isotherms that is evaluated, but hysteresis between a scanning isotherm and the absorption isotherm.…”

Sorption isotherms describe the relation between the equilibrium moisture content of a material and the ambient relative humidity. Most materials exhibits sorption hysteresis, that is, desorption give higher equilibrium moisture contents than absorption at equal ambient climate conditions. Sorption hysteresis is commonly evaluated by determination of an absorption isotherm followed by desorption starting from the highest relative humidity used in the absorption measurement (typically 95%). The latter is often interpreted as the desorption isotherm but is in fact a scanning isotherm, i.e. an isotherm obtained from neither dry nor water-saturated state. In the present study, we investigated the difference between desorption isotherms and scanning isotherms determined by desorption from different high relative humidity levels reached by absorption and how this difference influenced the evaluation of sorption hysteresis. The measurements were performed on Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) using automated sorption balances. Hysteresis evaluated from desorption isotherms gave linear absolute sorption hysteresis for the studied relative humidity range (0-96%), whereas hysteresis evaluated from scanning isotherms gave non-linear curves with a peak between 50 and 80% relative humidity. The position of this peak depended on the relative humidity from which desorption was initiated. Consequently, understanding and evaluation of sorption hysteresis might be challenging if scanning isotherms are used instead of desorption isotherms, hereby increasing the risk of misinterpreting the results.

This research demonstrated that polymerization of aniline on cellulose produces chiroptically active composites. Polymerization of aniline in the presence of cotton fibers consisting of chiral cellulose are performed to prepare a polyaniline (PANI)/cotton composite. The polymerization is conducted at the cotton interface. The resultant PANI/cotton composite shows chiroptical activity elucidated with diffuse reflectance circular dichroism. In this reaction, textile‐surface interfacial asymmetric polymerization is performed with imprinting of chiral structure from the cotton as a natural chiroptically active polymer to the PANI. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
