Carbon assimilation and distribution in cotton photosynthetic organs is a limiting factor affecting boll weight formation under drought

Previous studies have documented cotton boll weight reductions under drought, but the relative importance of the subtending leaf, bracts and capsule wall in driving drought-induced reductions in boll mass has received limited attention. To investigate the role of carbon metabolism in driving organ-s...
