Abstract
Drought is a major environmental challenge that affects the quality and yield of cotton fibres. The aim of the present study was to develop drought-responsive EST-SSRs from cotton transcriptome data. A total of 1946 functionally annotated EST-SSR markers were developed, with tri-nucleotide SSR repeats being the most abundant (40.7 %), followed by di-nucleotides (18.1 %). Gene Ontology (GO) associated with EST-SSR showed the presence of genes related to drought stress, such as PIP, CDK, LEA, etc. A set of 46 EST-SSRs was validated under In-vitro conditions on fourteen cotton genotypes, and 15 EST-SSRs were found to be polymorphic. The polymorphic EST-SSRs markers amplified a total of 44 loci with 32.6 % polymorphism. Genetic analysis revealed that the markers NAU-G-16, NAU-G-39, NAU-G-117 and NAU-G-142 amplified four unique alleles at 121, 163, 224 and 238 bp, respectively, only in drought-tolerant cotton genotypes. The effectiveness of the markers was demonstrated by their high polymorphism information content (PIC), which ranged from 0.35 to 0.89. The large number of markers, 60 %, had a PIC value of >0.6 and were classified as highly informative. The genetic similarity coefficients between cotton genotypes ranged from 0.409 to 0.89, indicating moderate genetic diversity. The Shannon index ranged from 0.21 to 0.65, while the Nei coefficient ranged from 0.12 to 0.46. Clustering and PCo analysis showed the distribution of genotypes into four main clusters, with drought-tolerant genotypes grouped into a single cluster. These drought-responsive markers are promising for the further development of marker-assisted breeding with the aim of increasing the productivity of cotton under drought-prone conditions.

期刊介绍:
Gene Reports publishes papers that focus on the regulation, expression, function and evolution of genes in all biological contexts, including all prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, as well as viruses. Gene Reports strives to be a very diverse journal and topics in all fields will be considered for publication. Although not limited to the following, some general topics include: DNA Organization, Replication & Evolution -Focus on genomic DNA (chromosomal organization, comparative genomics, DNA replication, DNA repair, mobile DNA, mitochondrial DNA, chloroplast DNA). Expression & Function - Focus on functional RNAs (microRNAs, tRNAs, rRNAs, mRNA splicing, alternative polyadenylation) Regulation - Focus on processes that mediate gene-read out (epigenetics, chromatin, histone code, transcription, translation, protein degradation). Cell Signaling - Focus on mechanisms that control information flow into the nucleus to control gene expression (kinase and phosphatase pathways controlled by extra-cellular ligands, Wnt, Notch, TGFbeta/BMPs, FGFs, IGFs etc.) Profiling of gene expression and genetic variation - Focus on high throughput approaches (e.g., DeepSeq, ChIP-Seq, Affymetrix microarrays, proteomics) that define gene regulatory circuitry, molecular pathways and protein/protein networks. Genetics - Focus on development in model organisms (e.g., mouse, frog, fruit fly, worm), human genetic variation, population genetics, as well as agricultural and veterinary genetics. Molecular Pathology & Regenerative Medicine - Focus on the deregulation of molecular processes in human diseases and mechanisms supporting regeneration of tissues through pluripotent or multipotent stem cells.
