Gossypium arboreum is a cotton species native primarily to Pakistan and india. It is one of the few cultivated cotton species. Here you can find genetic and genomic resources related to this important cotton species. Useful Agronomic Traits: Resistance to hoppers, white flies, aphids, leaf curl virus, thrips, drought tolerance, resistance to black root rot, reniform nematodes and spider-mites (Shim J, et al. 2018).
