Abstract

Abstract

This chapter discusses the cotton fibre development and cellulose synthesis (fibre initiation, elongation and primary cell wall development, fibre secondary cell wall development and fibre maturation), fibre properties (physiochemical composition and structural properties of cellulose and physical properties), regulation of fibre development (metabolic control and environmental effects on fibre development), hormonal regulation of fibre development and the Bt ovule-culture system, molecular genetics of fibre development and advances in cotton genomics and functional genomics. The different genetic engineering efforts to alter fibre characteristics, such as manipulation of metabolic pathways, modification of hormone levels/signalling and their pathways, targeting of cell wall genes, introduction of novel traits to the cotton fibre and the use of model plant systems in cotton fibre research, are also highlighted.
