title: Mapping of a new wrinkled leaf (wr3) gene in upland cotton.
abstract: The phenotype of a wrinkled leaf mutant in upland cotton newly found was different from other analogous mutants reported previously. Genetic analysis indicates that the mutation is controlled by a single recessive gene wr. In this paper, an F₂mapping population derived from the mutation inbred line L037 crossing with Hai7124 (Gossypium babardense) was used. A total of 12 pairs of polymorphic primers were selected from 234 pairs of SSR primers obtained before, which covered 26 pairs of cotton chromosomes at regular intervals. Genetic mapping of the F₂population showed that gene wr₃was linked to the primer BNL3279 on Chr.21 with the distance of 28.7 cM. Further screening of other primers on Chr.21 showed that gene wr₃was flanked by the primers NAU3740 and cgr5428, with genetic distance of 4.8 cM and 10.4 cM, respectively.
