Abstract

The cotton male sterile line is a sterile line formed by the mutation of the nuclear gene that controls the normal fertility of pollen. It is widely used in hybrids because of the advantages of abortion, wide recovery and easy screening of high-yielding hybrids produce. However, there is not much research on the mechanism of cotton male sterility in cotton. In order to better carry out the study of nuclear male sterile materials, the research progress of cotton male sterility mechanism was reviewed from the aspects of morphology, cytology, physiology and biochemistry and molecular basis. The application of nuclear male sterile hybrid cotton and the development direction of cotton male sterility mechanism are put forward.
