Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Optimal boron increased maximum cotton fiber elongation velocity relative to control.
- Intervention effect Optimal boron enhanced CesA activity and GhCesA3/6 expression.
- Mechanism Optimal boron promoted biosynthesis of cellulose, pectin and hemicellulose in the primary cell wall.
- Intervention effect Optimal boron increased sucrose, hexose and K + accumulation in cotton fibers.
- Mechanism Accumulation of sucrose, hexose and K + promoted turgor pressure and fiber elongation.
- Intervention effect Optimal boron augmented exo-β-1,4-glucanase activity.
- Intervention effect Optimal boron increased PME activity and GhPME1/2 expression.
- Intervention effect Optimal boron upregulated GhXTH6/7/8 expression.
- Intervention effect Optimal boron upregulated GhEXPA1/2/4 expression.
- Mechanism The reported changes facilitated primary cell wall loosening and remodeling to promote fiber length.
