The disclosure provides a new cotton variety FM 2574GLT. The disclosure relates to seeds, plants, plant cells, plant tissue, harvested products and cotton lint as well as to hybrid cotton plants and seeds obtained by repeatedly crossing plants of variety FM 2574GLT with other plants. The disclosure also relates to plants of variety FM 2574GLT reproduced by vegetative methods, including but not limited to tissue culture of regenerable cells or tissue from cotton variety FM 2574GLT.

A new and distinct cultivar of Hibiscus plant named ‘MINSYBV3S01’ is disclosed, characterized by large violet-blue flowers having a small maroon eye. Plants are well branched and upright. The new variety is a Hibiscus, normally produced as an outdoor garden or container plant.

The invention relates to the novel cotton variety designated 18R423B3XF. Provided by the invention are the seeds, plants, plant parts and derivatives of the cotton variety 18R423B3XF. Also provided by the invention are methods of using cotton variety 18R423B3XF and products derived therefrom. Still further provided by the invention are methods for producing cotton plants by crossing the cotton variety 18R423B3XF with itself or another cotton variety and plants and seeds produced by such methods.

The present invention discloses genes and SNP markers significantly associated with lint percentage trait in cotton, and use thereof. The genes significantly associated with the lint percentage trait in cotton are genes Gh_D05G1124, Gh_D05G0313, and GhWAKL3. In the present invention, a CottonSNP63K gene array is used for genotyping, and genome re-sequencing data are analyzed to identify SNP markers significantly associated with the lint percentage trait in cotton. Moreover, the present invention also discloses use of the genes and SNP markers, which are significantly associated with the lint percentage trait in cotton, in cotton germplasm identification, breeding, or genetic diversity analysis.

The cotton variety BX 2116GLTP is disclosed. The invention relates to seeds, plants, plant cells, plant tissue, harvested products and cotton lint as well as to hybrid cotton plants and seeds obtained by repeatedly crossing plants of variety BX 2116GLTP with other plants. The invention also relates to plants and varieties produced by the method of essential derivation from plants of BX 2116GLTP and to plants of BX 2116GLTP reproduced by vegetative methods, including but not limited to tissue culture of regenerable cells or tissue from BX 2116GLTP.

A new and distinct cultivar of winter-hardy, herbaceous, perennial, hybrid Hibiscus plant named ‘Blackberry Merlot’ comprising a compact, upright, mounded habit of multiple, well-branched, basal stems producing flowers beginning in late July for at least eight weeks. Flowers have overlapping, moderately-rippled petals of deep velvety red with dark reddish shiny eye, with the leading margin occasionally folded underneath giving flowers extra strength and resistance to wind damage. The flower buds are dark, purplish gray. The foliage is primarily three-lobed, and rich olive-green with mahogany coloration when young.
