Genetic and phenotypic effects of chromosome segments introgressed from Gossypium barbadense into Gossypium hirsutum.

ABSTRACT: MBI9915 is an introgression cotton line with excellent fiber quality. It was obtained by advanced backcrossing and continuous inbreeding from an interspecific cross between the upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) cultivar CCRI36 as the recurrent parent and the sea island cotton (G. barbadense) cultivar Hai1, as the donor parent. To study the genetic effects of the introgressed chromosome segments in G. hirsutum, an F2 secondary segregating population of 1537 individuals was created by crossing MBI9915 and CCRI36, and an F2:3 population was created by randomly selecting 347 individuals from the F2 generation. Quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping and interaction for fiber length and strength were identified using IciMapping software. The genotype analysis showed that the recovery rate for M
