Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Virus-induced silencing of three gene pairs significantly reduced the number of glands in cotton leaves.
- Intervention effect Silencing of three gene pairs significantly lowered gossypol and related terpenoid levels in cotton.
- Intervention effect Overexpression of GoPGF (CGF3) dramatically increased gossypol and related terpenoids in cultured cotton cells.
- Intervention effect CRISPR/Cas9 knockout of GoPGF (CGF3) genes produced a glandless cotton phenotype.
- Mechanism The GoPGF (CGF3) gene is concluded to play a critical role in gland formation in cotton.
- Recommendation Seed-specific silencing of CGF genes could eliminate glands and thus gossypol from cottonseed, making it safer as feed.
- Observation Embryos of glanded cotton showed 33 genes expressed exclusively or at higher levels just before gland formation.
- Observation The CGF genes encode transcription factors.
- Observation No sequence differences were found between glanded and glandless cotton for CGF1 and CGF2 gene pairs.
