Genome-wide identification and analysis of Oleosin gene family in four cotton species and its involvement in oil accumulation and germination

Abstract Background Cotton is not only a major textile fiber crop but also a vital oilseed, industrial, and forage crop. Oleosins are the structural proteins of oil bodies, influencing their size and the oil content in seeds. In addition, the degradation of oleosins is involved in the mobilization o...
