Abstract:

Short season cotton is of particular importance for sustainable development of cotton production in China where has a huge population and limited arable land resources. Usually, early maturity is associated with lower yield and poor quality. We previously developed a novel transgenic cotton material with improved fiber yield and quality by spatiotemporal manipulation of auxin biosynthesis in cotton ovule epidermal cells. In this study, we introduced FBP7::iaaM into a short season cotton variety Jinmian 11, which has low lint percentage and high macronaire value, through backcross breeding. A consecutive two-year field experiment indicated that the transgenic-homozygous backcrossed progeny (JBC4) exhibited a significant improvement in fiber yield and fiber fineness. Compared with Jinmian 11, lint percentage and lint yield of JBC4 increased by 12.8% and 56.3%, respectively, and meanwhile, the micronaire value decreased by 10.7%. Our data demonstrate a significant potential of the FBP7::iaaM transgenic in the yield and quality improvement for short season cotton.
