Cotton production is widely effected by Cotton Leaf Curl Virus (CLCuV) in world posing serious losses to cotton yield.The CRT genes from CLCuV resistant G. arboreum and CLCuV susceptible G. hirsutum were cloned and sequenced to know the differences of protein composition in both species. Molecular techniques were used to isolate full length putative biotic stress resistance genes from G. arboreum besides the analysis of identified novel genes in model plant tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) for resistance to cotton leaf curl disease complex. It was found that transgenic plants over expressing Hydroperoxidelyase (HPL) genes exhibited higher enzyme activity than wild type. In addition the genome sequence information was used for the purpose of gene isolation. Even for the enhanced expression of Calreticulin (CRT), AOS and HPL in G. hirsutum, it still showed susceptibility against CLCuV suggesting alternative genes and pathways involved for the expression of resistance.

Brown cotton and white cotton are two important raw materials used in the cotton fiber industry. Clarifying the differences in morphology, agronomic traits, and fiber pigments between these varieties can facilitate the implementation of corresponding cultivation and breeding techniques. Therefore, we obtained F generation brown cotton plants through hybridization and compared them with their parents.

Tryptophan-arginine-lysine-tyrosine (WRKY) transcription factors are essential regulators of drought tolerance in multiple plants. However, whether and how GhWRKY207 modulates cotton response to drought stress is unclear. In this study, we determined that GhWRKY207 expression was high in leaves and induced by drought stress.

The begomoviral V2 protein is known to be multifunctional, including its interaction with and inhibition of CYP1, a papain-like cysteine protease (PLCP). However, the effect of this interaction on viral pathogenicity remains unclear. Cotton leaf curl Multan virus (CLCuMuV), a typical monopartite begomovirus associated with a betasatellite, is one of the main pathogens responsible for cotton leaf curl disease.

Cotton leaf curl disease (CLCuD) is a major constraint for production of cotton (Gossypium sp.) in Northwest India. CLCuD is caused by a monopartite, circular ssDNA virus belonging to the genus Begomovirus in association with betasatellites and alphasatellites, and ttransmitted by a whitefly vector (Bemisia tabaci).
