Abstract: | Background Phytochromes are a family of red/far-red photoreceptors that regulate a number of important developmental traits in cotton
(Gossypium spp.), including plant architecture, fiber development, and photoperiodic flowering. Little is known about the composition
and evolution of the phytochrome gene family in diploid (G. herbaceum, G. raimondii) or allotetraploid (G. hirsutum, G. barbadense) cotton species. The objective of this study was to obtain a preliminary inventory and molecular-evolutionary characterization
of the phytochrome gene family in cotton. |
