Abstract

One plant with abnormal bracts resembling Trego’ bract was found in G. arboreum var. AKH 111. It was studied cytologically and concluded that it is a gene mutation as in the case of G. hirsutum. The plant is being used for character transfer and for study of its genetics and linkage associations.
