Abstract: 
Fibre is an important raw material of cotton for fibre industries. To meet ever changing fibre norms of textile industry, understanding the fibre genomics and the biological function of the genes involved in fibre development is essential. We studied differentially expressed genes between fibreless mutant and normal diploid cottons at 0 and 10 days after pollination through transcriptome studies. Functional annotation of these differentially expressed genes was carried out by comparison with tair data base version 10 of A. thaliana.
