Publication number: 20140255922Abstract: Polymorphic cotton DNA loci useful for genotyping between at least two varieties of cotton. Sequences of the loci are useful for providing the basis for designing primers and probe oligonucleotides for detecting polymorphisms in cotton DNA. Polymorphisms are useful for genotyping applications in cotton. The polymorphic markers are useful to establish marker/trait associations, e.g. in linkage disequilibrium mapping and association studies, positional cloning and transgenic applications, marker-aided breeding and marker-assisted selection, hybrid prediction and identity by descent studies. The polymorphic markers are also useful in mapping libraries of DNA clones, e.g. for cotton QTLs and genes linked to polymorphisms.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 13, 2008Publication date: September 11, 2014Applicant: Monsanto Technology LLCInventors: Kunsheng Wu, John LeDeaux, David Butruille, Anju Gupta, Richard Johnson, Sam Eathington, Jason Bull, Marlin Edwards, Jinhua Xiao, Shaolin Liu, Paul McLaird

Publication number: 20090276922Abstract: Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs) isolated from cotton are disclosed. The ESTs provide a unique molecular tool for the targeting and isolation of novel genes for plant protection and improvement. The disclosed ESTs have utility in the development of new strategies for understanding critical plant developmental and metabolic pathways. The disclosed ESTs have particular utility in isolating genes and promoters, identifying and mapping the genes involved in developmental and metabolic pathways, and determining gene function. Sequence homology analyses using the ESTs provided in the present invention, will result in more efficient gene screening for desirable agronomic traits.
