Article Synopsis
- Improvement of cotton fiber yield and quality is hindered by a narrow genetic base in modern cultivars, highlighting the need to explore existing germplasm resources.
- A study genotyped 302 elite upland cotton germplasm accessions using 198 SSR markers, discovering 897 alleles with 77.7% polymorphic, indicating significant genetic diversity.
- The research identified three subpopulations within the germplasm, suggesting the potential for using SSR markers in genome-wide association studies to enhance cotton breeding efforts.
