摘要： Salinity is frequently mentioned as a major constraint in worldwide agricultural production. Lint percentage (LP) is a crucial yield-component in cotton lint production. While the genetic factors affect cotton yield in saline soils are still unclear. Here, we employed a recombinant inbred line population in upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) and investigated the effects of salt stress on five yield and yield component traits, including seed cotton yield per plant, lint yield per plant, boll number per plant, boll weight, and LP. Between three datasets of salt stress (E1), normal growth (E2), and the difference values dataset of salt stress and normal conditions (D-value), 87, 82, and 55 quantitative trait loci (QTL) were detectable, respectively. In total, five QTL (qLY-Chr6-2, qBNP-Chr4-1, qBNP-Chr12-1, qBNP-Chr15-5, qLP-Chr19-2) detected in both in E1 and D-value were salt related QTL, and three stable QTL (qLP-Chr5-3, qLP-Chr13-1, qBW-Chr5-5) were detected both in E1 and E2 across 3 years. Silencing of nine genes within a stable QTL (qLP-Chr5-3) highly expressed in fiber developmental stages increased LP and decreased fiber length (FL), indicating that multiple minor-effect genes clustered on Chromosome 5 regulate LP and FL. Additionally, the difference in LP caused by Gh_A05G3226 is mainly in transcription level rather than in the sequence difference. Moreover, silencing of salt related gene (GhDAAT) within qBNP-Chr4-1 decreased salt tolerance in cotton. Our findings shed light on the regulatory mechanisms underlining cotton salt tolerance and fiber initiation. Our study provided important gene resources for salt tolerance improvement of cotton, and shed light on the regulatory mechanisms underlining plant salt tolerance.
