Thyssen G, Smith W, Naoumkina M, Pinnika G, Jenkins J, McCarty J, et al.
BMC Plant Biol . 2025 Mar; 25(1):305. PMID: 40059154
Background: Breeding valuable traits in crop plants requires identifying diverse alleles in the germplasm that are likely to affect desirable characteristics. The genetic diversity of historic cultivars of cotton is...

Kim H, Thyssen G, Delhom C, Fang D, Naoumkina M, Florane C, et al.
Front Plant Sci . 2024 Nov; 15:1472675. PMID: 39559766
Within-sample variation in cotton fiber length is a major factor influencing the production and quality of yarns. The textile industry has been searching for approaches of improving the long fiber...

Naoumkina M, Thyssen G, Fang D, Florane C, Li P
Plant Physiol . 2022 Aug; 190(3):1792-1805. PMID: 35997586
Most cultivated cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) varieties have two types of seed fibers: short fuzz fiber strongly adhered to the seed coat, and long lint fiber used in the textile...

Naoumkina M, Thyssen G, Fang D, Bechere E, Li P, Florane C
Mol Genet Genomics . 2021 Jun; 296(5):1041-1049. PMID: 34110475
Cotton fiber mutants are valuable resources for studying functions of altered genes and their roles in fiber development. The n is a recessive tufted-fuzzless seed mutant created through chemical mutagenesis...

Naoumkina M, Thyssen G, Fang D, Li P, Florane C
Mol Genet Genomics . 2020 Nov; 296(1):193-206. PMID: 33141290
Most commercially produced cotton cultivars have two types of fibers on the seed coat, short fuzz and long lint. Lint fiber is used in the textile industry, while fuzz is...

Fang D, Naoumkina M, Thyssen G, Bechere E, Li P, Florane C
Theor Appl Genet . 2019 Oct; 133(1):271-282. PMID: 31624873
The EMS-induced threonine/isoleucine substitution in a tetratricopeptide repeat-like superfamily protein encoded by gene Ghir_A12G008870 is responsible for the Ligon-lintless-y (li) short fiber phenotype in cotton. A short fiber mutant Ligon-lintless-y...

Naoumkina M, Thyssen G, Fang D, Jenkins J, McCarty J, Florane C
BMC Genomics . 2019 Feb; 20(1):112. PMID: 30727946
Background: Improving cotton fiber length without reducing yield is one of the major goals of cotton breeding. However, genetic improvement of cotton fiber length by breeding has been a challenge...

Mattison C, Khurana T, Tarver M, Florane C, Grimm C, Pakala S, et al.
PLoS One . 2017 Aug; 12(8):e0182260. PMID: 28767688
Cockroach allergens can lead to serious allergy and asthma symptoms. Termites are evolutionarily related to cockroaches, cohabitate in human dwellings, and represent an increasing pest problem in the United States....

Naoumkina M, Bechere E, Fang D, Thyssen G, Florane C
Genomics . 2017 Jun; 109(3-4):320-329. PMID: 28577792
In this work we describe a chemically-induced short fiber mutant cotton line, Ligon-lintless-y (li), which is controlled by a single recessive locus and affects multiple traits, including height of the...

Gene . 2017 May; 626:227-233. PMID: 28546126
Xyloglucan is a matrix polysaccharide found in the cell walls of all land plants. In growing cells, xyloglucan is thought to connect cellulose microfibrils and regulate their separation during wall...
