Abstract
Cotton is grown in areas of the world that are subject to recurring periods of high temperature and drought stress. Drought is often associated with high air temperature, and high tissue temperature may result from drought due to loss of transpirational cooling. Pollen fertility, which is often reduced by excessive temperature and drought stress, affects both quantity and quality of the cotton fiber produced. Thus, in order to generate high temperature-resistant cotton plants in vitro, a culture approach was used.
