Biology of Gossypium hirsutum L.
Cotton as a Crop
Four species of the genus Gossypium are known as cotton, which is grown primarily for the seed hairs that are made into textiles. Cotton is predominant as a textile fiber because the mature dry hairs twist in such a way that fine, strong threads can be spun from them. Other products, such as cottonseed oil, cake, and cotton linters are byproducts of fiber production.
