Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Four QTLs affecting cotton leaf pubescence were mapped.
- Association A chromosome 6 QTL imparts dense leaf pubescence and is inferred to be the t1 locus.
- Observation A chromosome 25 QTL fits the description of the t2 locus.
- Association QLP1 explained significant variation in cotton leaf pubescence.
- Association QLP2 explained significant variation in cotton leaf pubescence.
- Association QLP1 reduced hairiness only in young cotton leaves.
- Association QLP2 increased hairiness in mature cotton leaves.
- Method / resource A qualitative trichome density scoring system detected only the chromosome 6 locus.
- Method / resource The DTL scoring system was apparently insufficiently sensitive to detect alleles such as t2 with smaller effects.
