“…Previous studies demonstrated that the fiber strength commonly related to the strengthening of cell wall 59 . Interestingly, identification of cell wall related genes such as ABC transporter-like 47 , 60 , 61 , arabinogalactan peptide (AGP) 62 , 63 , alpha-1,4-glucan-protein synthase 64 , calcium-binding EF-hand protein 61 , cellulose synthase 63 , glutathione peroxidase 65 , glycoside hydrolase 66 , glycosyl transferase 67 – 69 , extensin 62 , UDP-glucuronosyl/UDP-glucosyltransferase 70 , small GTPase superfamily 71 , kinesin 72 , leucine-rich repeat 61 , thaumatin 73 , tubulin 74 , and WD40 repeat 75 in PCoEGs and NCoEGs, emphasizing their potential roles in regulating cell wall integrity and thus fiber quality (Supplementary Dataset S8). However, the detailed molecular investigation is needed further to establish a link between CAMTAs and fiber quality traits.…”
