About the Author:

David Fang is Supervisory Research Geneticist and Research Leader of Cotton Fiber Bioscience Research Unit, USDA-ARS at New Orleans, LA. He leads a group to study cotton fiber biology using biochemical, genetic, molecular, and genomic methods. His research focuses on mapping important qualitative and quantitative traits of cotton using DNA markers and implementing them in practical breeding.
He also uses mutants to study Y ber development, especially fiber elongation and maturation. He has served the cottonresearch community as chair of Structural Genomics Workgroup of the International Cotton Genome Initiative and as a member of the Cotton Marker Database Advisory Committee.

Richard Percy is Research Leader for the Crop Germplasm Research Unit of the USDA-ARS in College Station, TX, whose tasks include maintenance of the national collection for Gossypium germplasm, characterization and evaluation of the genetic diversity of the cotton collection, and development of improved germplasm.
His interests include use of marker technologies to explore and deY ne the structure of genetic diversity within the Gossypium genus, phenotypic characterization and evaluation of the germplasm collection for agronomically important traits, and mapping and sequencing commercial tetraploid cotton. Dr. Percy has served as chair of the Cotton Crop Germplasm Committee, chair of the International Cotton Genome Initiative, and as a member of the CottonGen database committee.
