La demande annuelle de coton augmente en raison de la croissance démographique mondiale et de l’évolution des comportements d’achat des consommateurs. D'autres options de fibres naturelles telles que la laine, le lin et la soie, entre autres, sont produites dans des proportions très maigres. Le polyester (poly (téréphtalate d’éthylène) (PET) présente des qualités qui pourraient répondre à cette préoccupation pour les vêtements. Malheureusement, les consommateurs hésitent à porter des vêtements 100% polyester, principalement en raison d’un confort sensoriel inférieur, du toucher et parfois de leur apparence. Cette étude visait à améliorer le tissu en PET caractéristiques afin de réduire l'écart entre la perception humaine et la performance hydrophile du coton par rapport au PET Pour déterminer la disparité existant entre le coton et les tissus tissés en PET, une étude multisensorielle a été réalisée à l'aide d'un panel de 12 juges formés sur 11 descripteurs sensoriels. Des algorithmes de Monte Carlo, des algorithmes génétiques et la technique de Borda Count (BK) ont été utilisés pour la fusion de rangs .L'analyse en composantes principales (PCA) et la classification hiérarchique par agglomération (AHC) ont été utilisées pour créer des profils sensoriels. Tissus en PET et en coton (p = 0,05). Il a été déduit que l’aspect visuel et esthétique peut être utilisé pour distinguer le PET du tissus de coton. Pour remplacer le coton par du PET via cette approche sensorielle, la modification de la rigidité des tissus en polyester a été judicieusement réalisée à l'aide de NaOH et d'un adoucissant en silicium, avec une pré-oxydation au plasma atmosphérique. Les tissus en PET traités avec NaOH et l’adoucissant en silicone ont été perçus comme étant doux, lisses, moins nets et moins raides par rapport à certains tissus en coton et en PET non traité. Le profilage des tissus indique que les tissus en PET conventionnels peuvent être distingués des tissus en coton conventionnels en utilisant une évaluation à la fois subjective et objective. Il est également avancé que la perception sensorielle humaine sur textile ne peut être directement représentée par des mesures instrumentales. La dernière partie de l’étude compare le potentiel hydrophile et l’efficacité de deux monomères vinyliques: le poly- (éthylène glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) et le chlorure de [2- (méthacryloyloxy) éthyl] triméthylammonium (METAC) radicalement photo-greffé sur la surface de Tissu en PET. Une étude de surface utilisant la spectroscopie photoélectronique à rayons X (XPS) et la spectroscopie à dispersion d'énergie (EDS) a confirmé le greffage. Les tests d'humidité indiquent que PEGDA et METAC induisent un mouillage complet du PET à des concentrations de 0,1 à 5% (V: V). Les mesures colorimétriques (K/S et CIELAB/CH) et la stabilité de la couleur sur les tissus teints en PET suggèrent que les deux monomères améliorent considérablement l'efficacité de la teinture du PET. Il est suggéré que PEGDA et METAC génèrent des groupes hydrophiles sur le PET; les macroradicaux sont sous la forme de structures vinyliques qui forment des greffes à chaîne courte et démontrent une fonction hydrophile. Les résultats de cette recherche peuvent jouer un rôle directeur pratique dans la conception des tissus, la conception des propriétés sensorielles et contribuer au développement de tissus en polyester de type cotonThere is increasing annual demand for cotton due to world population growth and changes in consumers’ purchasing behavior. Other natural fiber options such as wool, linen and silk among others, are produced in very meager proportions. Polyester (poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) has qualities that could address this concern for apparel. Unfortunately, consumers are reluctant to wear 100% polyester clothing mainly due to inferior sensory comfort, touch and sometimes appearance. This study sought to improve PET fabric characteristics in order to decrease the gap between human perception and hydrophilic performance of cotton vs. PET. To determine the disparity between cotton and PET woven fabrics, a multisensory study was undertaken using a panel of 12 trained judges against 11 sensory descriptors. Cross-entropy Monte Carlo algorithms, Genetic algorithms, and the Borda Count (BK) technique were used for rank fusion. Principle component analysis (PCA) and agglomerative hierarchical clustering (AHC) were used to create sensory profiles. The descriptor crisp accounted for the highest variability between PET and cotton fabrics (p˂0.05). It was deduced that visual and aesthetics can be used to distinguish between PET and cotton fabrics. To replace cotton with PET via this sensory approach, the modification of stiffness of polyester fabrics was judiciously carried out using NaOH and a silicon softener, with atmospheric air plasma pre-oxidation. PET fabrics treated with NaOH and the silicon softener were perceived soft, smooth, less crisp, and less stiff compared to some cotton and untreated PET fabrics. The profiling of fabrics indicates that conventional PET fabrics can be distinguished from conventional cotton fabrics using both subjective and objective evaluation. It is also argued that textile human sensory perception cannot be directly represented by instrumental measurements. The final part of the study compares the hydrophilic potential and efficacy of two vinyl monomers: Poly-(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) and [2-(methacryloyloxy) ethyl]-trimethylammonium chloride (METAC) radically photo-grafted on the surface of PET fabric. Surface study using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) confirmed the grafting. Moisture tests indicate that PEGDA and METAC induce complete wetting of PET at concentrations 0.1-5% (V:V). Colorimetric measurements (K/S and CIELAB/CH) and colorfastness on dyed PET fabrics suggest that both monomers greatly improve the dyeing efficiency of PET. It is suggested that PEGDA and METAC generate hydrophilic groups on PET; the macroradicals are in a form of vinyl structures which form short chain grafts and demonstrate hydrophilic function. The results of this research can play a practical guiding role in the design of fabrics, sensory property design and contribute to the development of cotton-like polyester fabrics

Les cellules végétales sont entourées par une paroi cellulaire rigide, ce qui qui exclut des processus essentiels au développement animal, comme la migration cellulaire et le réarrangement des tissus. Au lieu de cela, le développement des plantes repose sur la division et l'expansion cellulaires. Le paradigme actuel suppose que l’expansion cellulaire dépend des propriétés biomécaniques de la paroi cellulaire et de la génération de la pression de turgescence. Les plasmodesmes sont des canaux membranaires qui relient des cellules voisines et permettent la libre circulation des molécules plus petites que leur diamètre (définissant leur perméabilité). Il est établi que la perméabilité des plasmodesmes change au cours du développement de la plante et que ces modifications peuvent affecter le mouvement des sucres. Pour cette raison, la perméabilité des plasmodesmes semble être un bon candidat pour la régulation de la pression de turgescence lors de l'expansion cellulaire, cependant, son rôle reste largement inexploré. Ainsi, des études antérieures suggèrent que les plasmodesmes peuvent répondre aux changements de pression de turgescence. Dans ce travail, nous avons avancé l'hypothèse selon laquelle la pression de turgescence et la perméabilité des plasmodesmes pourraient s’influence au cours du développement de la plante. Nous avons abordé ce problème en mettant tout d'abord en avant un réseau d'interactions entre différents facteurs cellulaires et moléculaires susceptibles de médier ces rétroactions entre la turgescence et les plasmodesmes. Deuxièmement, nous avons généré un modèle informatique pour explorer une direction de ces interactions: le rôle de la perméabilité des plasmodesmes sur la régulation de la pression de turgescence. Notre modèle utilise les équations de Lockhart décrivant l’expansion cellulaire irréversible, auxquelles sont ajoutées les flux d'eau et de solutés à travers les plasmodesmes. Nous avons utilisé la fibre de coton comme système d’étude car il s’agit d’une cellule unique qui ne se divise pas et qui augmente généralement en longueur. De plus, des études expérimentales antérieures dans ce système ont montré une corrélation entre la fermeture de plasmodesmes et des valeurs maximales de la pression de turgescence. Les résultats de notre modèle suggèrent que la perméabilité des plasmodesmes est en effet un facteur clé dans la régulation de la turgescence et de la croissance de la fibre du coton. De plus, nous suggérons que des changements dynamiques de la perméabilité des plasmodesmes soient nécessaires pour récupérer les comportements de pression de turgescence qui ont été rapportés expérimentalementPlant cells are surrounded by the rigid cell wall that precludes developmental processes that are central in animal development, like cell migration and tissue rearrangement. Instead, plant development relies on cell division and expansion. The current paradigm assumes that cell expansion depends on the biomechanical properties of the cell wall and on the generation of turgor pressure. Plasmodesmata are membrane-lined channels that connect neighboring cells and allow free movement of molecules that are smaller than their diameter (i.e., permeability). It is known that plasmodesmal permeability changes during plant development and that these modifications can affect movement of sugars. Because of this, plasmodesmal permeability seems to be a good candidate for the regulation of turgor pressure during cell expansion, however, its contribution remains largely unexplored. In turn, previous studies suggest that plasmodesmata may respond to changes in turgor pressure. In this work we put forward the hypothesis that turgor pressure and plasmodesmal permeability may affect each other during plant development. We addressed this problem by, first, putting forward a network of interactions between different cellular and molecular factors that might mediate these feedbacks between turgor and plasmodesmata. Second, we generated a computational model to explore one direction of these interactions: the role of plasmodesmal permeability on turgor pressure regulation. Our model uses Lockhart's equations for irreversible cell expansion with addition of plasmodesmal-dependent fluxes of water and solutes. We used cotton fiber as a study system because it is a single cell without division that mostly increases in length. Furthermore, previous experimental studies in this system have correlated closure of plasmodesmata with peak values of turgor pressure. The results of our model suggest that plasmodesmal permeability is, indeed, a key factor in regulating turgor and cotton fiber growth. Moreover, we suggest that dynamical changes of plasmodesmal permeability are needed in order to recover turgor pressure behaviors that have been experimentally reported. Finally, we explored with our collaborators the potential contribution of plasmodesmal permeability in the evolution of complex multicellular plants using the "Dynamical Patterning Modules" (DPMs) framework. These ideas can be useful in understanding how plant body plans originated

Grâce aux développements techniques et technologiques des dernières décennies, le commerce international du coton passe graduellement d'un classement manuel et visuel à un classement à base de résultats de mesures instrumentales. Or adopter une technique requiert d'en étudier ses modalités et ses conditions d'utilisation. Aux USA, des études périodiques de variabilité permettent d'assortir ces résultats d'analyse de tolérances commerciales afin de limiter la fréquence des litiges. Adopter en Afrique les règles et les méthodes de mesure des USA exposerait à un risque de litige accru si les conditions de production déterminent un coton de qualité plus variable. Pour la première fois en Afrique, nous avons mené une étude de la variabilité des caractéristiques technologiques des fibres dans huit pays d'Afrique de l'Ouest et du Centre : Bénin, Burkina-Faso, Cameroun, Côte d'Ivoire, Mali, Sénégal, Tchad et Togo. Pendant deux saisons de production, nous avons réalisé une expérimentation à trois types de prélèvements de fibres : 1) huit échantillons par balle au sein de 215 balles produites dans 27 usines d'égrenage, 2) un échantillon par balle de 4286 balles constituées en séries de 200 balles consécutives en saison 1 et de 100 balles consécutives en saison 2 dans les mêmes usines, 3) deux échantillons par balle (un en haut et un en bas) sur 817 balles constituées en séries de vingt balles consécutives hebdomadairement dans cinq usines au cours de la saison 2. Ensuite, les échantillons des 5318 balles échantillonnées furent analysés sur une Chaîne de Mesures Instrumentales (CMI) dans un laboratoire respectant les recommandations internationales et les conditions d'ambiance contrôlées. L'analyse statistique des données recueillies a permis d'évaluer le niveau de variabilité de chacune des caractéristiques technologiques étudiées, au sein des balles et entre celles-ci. Une méthode d'échantillonnage et de réalisation des analyses sur CMI est proposée pour réaliser le classement des balles de coton d'Afrique de l'Ouest et du Centre à partir de résultats précis et répétables respectant les règles commerciales établies au niveau mondial.

The distinct stages of cotton fiber development and maturation serve as a single-celled model for studying the molecular mechanisms of plant cell elongation, cell wall development and cellulose biosynthesis. However, this model system of plant cell development is compromised for proteomic studies due to a lack of an efficient protein extraction method during the later stages of fiber development, because of a recalcitrant cell wall and the presence of abundant phenolic compounds. Here, we compared the quality and quantities of proteins extracted from 25 dpa (days post anthesis) fiber with multiple protein extraction methods and present a comprehensive quantitative proteomic study of fiber development from 10 dpa to 25 dpa. Comparative analysis using a label-free quantification method revealed 287 differentially-expressed proteins in the 10 dpa to 25 dpa fiber developmental period. Proteins involved in cell wall metabolism and regulation, cytoskeleton development and carbohydrate metabolism among other functional categories in four fiber developmental stages were identified. Our studies provide protocols for protein extraction from maturing fiber tissues for mass spectrometry analysis and expand knowledge of the proteomic profile of cotton fiber development.

By testing a fiber beard, certain cotton fiber length parameters can be obtained rapidly. This is the method used by the High Volume Instrument (HVI). This study is aimed to explore the approaches and obtain the inference of length distributions of HVI beard sam- ples in order to develop new methods that can help us find the distribution of original fiber lengths and further improve HVI length measurements. At first, the mathematical functions were searched for describing three different types of length distributions related to the beard method as used in HVI: cotton fiber lengths of the original fiber population before picked by the HVI Fibrosampler, fiber lengths picked by HVI Fibrosampler, and fiber beard's pro-jecting portion that is actually scanned by HVI. Eight sets of cotton samples with a wide range of fiber lengths are selected and tested on the Advanced Fiber Information System (AFIS). The measured single fiber length data is used for finding the underlying theoreti-cal length distributions, and thus can be considered as the population distributions of the cotton samples. In addition, fiber length distributions by number and by weight are dis- cussed separately. In both cases a mixture of two Weibull distributions shows a good fit to their fiber length data. To confirm the findings, Kolmogorov-Smirnov goodness-of-fit tests were conducted. Furthermore, various length parameters such as Mean Length (ML) and Upper Half Mean Length (UHML) are compared between the original distribution from the experimental data and the fitted distributions. The results of these obtained fiber length distributions are discussed by using Partial Least Squares (PLS) regression, where the dis-tribution of the original fiber length from the distribution of the projected one is estimated.

Fiber quality data from five upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) genotypes,
which were grown at College Station, TX during 2001 and 2002, were subjected to
diallel and generation means analyses to determine the potential for improvement of
fiber length and to determine the inheritance of length distribution data. Four near-long
staple (NLS) upland cotton genotypes and one short-staple genotype were crossed in all
combinations, excluding reciprocals. Estimates of general (GCA) and specific
combining ability (SCA) for fiber length based on GriffingâÂÂs diallel Model I, Method 4
were calculated for high volume instrumentation (HVI) upper-half mean (UHM) fiber
length and advance fiber information system (AFIS) mean fiber length by weight (FLw),
mean fiber length by number (FLn), upper quartile length by weight (Uqlw), fiber length
distribution cross entropy (using 3 different standard or check distributions - CEA, CEB,
and CEC), fiber length distribution kurtosis (FLwKurt), and fiber length distribution
skewness (FLwSkew) for FLw. Across environments, GCA effects were significant for
fiber length measurements of UHM, FLw, FLn, Uqlw, and SFCw and distribution
measurements of CEA, CEB, FLwKurt, and FLwSkew. On the basis of GCA effects, TAM 94L-25 was the best parent to be used in a cross to improve upland fiber length,
while Acala 1517-99 was the parent of choice to improve distribution among the 4
parents tested.
The inheritance of AFIS fiber length measurements and distribution data was
estimated using parents, F1, F2, and backcross generations. The magnitude and
significance of the estimates for non-allelic effects in the parental combinations suggest
that epistatic gene effects are present and important in the basic mechanism of AFIS
fiber length and length distribution inheritance for the populations studied. Gene effects
and variances for all AFIS fiber length and distribution data measurements were
inherited differently in different environments and specific parental combination,
suggesting environmentally specific mechanisms. Developing genotypes with enhanced
fiber length and an optimal fiber length distribution should be a priority to improve
spinning performance and product quality of U.S. upland cotton.

Le principal objectif de ce travail était de caractériser d'un point de vue physico-chimique la surface de la fibre de coton. Une fibre brute et une fibre extraite à l'éthanol ont été analysées. Cette caractérisation a été principalement menée par chromatographie gazeuse inverse (IGC), permettant de déterminer l'énergie de surface de ces fibres en fonction de la température ainsi que leur morphologie de surface à une échelle moléculaire, avant et après traitement. Il a été montré que l'énergie de surface de la fibre brute dépend fortement de la présence de cires et de pectines qui recouvrent un tel type de fibre. En particulier, la fusion des cires en surface des fibres est nettement mise en évidence dans une gamme de températures comprises entre 50 et 90°C. La nano-morphologie de la surface de la fibre de coton est aussi très affectée par la présence des cires : une extraction à l'éthanol conduisant à une surface plus homogène d'un point de vue topographique. Dans la de Kième partie de ce travail, pour confirmer les résultats obtenus par IGC, la fibre de coton a été caractérisée par d'autres techniques microscopiques (microscopies électronique et à force atomique) et spectroscopiques (spectroscopie de photoélectrons, spectroscopies vibrationnelles,. . . )The aim of this work was to characterize the surface of the cotton fibre from a physical and chemical point of view. Raw and ethanol extracted fibres were particularly analysed. This characterization was mainly performed by means of inverse gas chromatography (IGC), which allowed us to determine the surface energy of the fibres as a function of temperature as well as their surface morphology at a molecular scale, before and alter treatment. It was shown that the thermodynamic surface energy of the raw cotton fibre strongly depends on the presence of waxes and pectins which usually cover such a type of fibre. In particular, the melting of waxes on the fibre surface, in a range of temperatures from 50 to 90°C, is clearly pointed out. The nano-morphological aspects of the cotton fibre surface are also greatly affected by the presence of waxes: ethanol extraction leading to a more homogeneous surface from a topographical point of view. To confirm the results obtained by IGC, the characterization of cotton fibres was completed, in the second part of this work, by means of other microscopical (electronic and atomic force microscopies ) and spectroscopie (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, vibrational spectroscopies,. . . ) techniques

Arizona has experienced a trend toward increasing fiber micronaire values in recent years resulting in substantial discounts on fiber value. There is some evidence to suggest management can impact fiber micronaire. Approximately 250 cases were identified in cotton production areas in Arizona ranging from the lower Colorado River Valley to near 2,000 ft. elevation with grower cooperators in the 2000 season. Field records were developed for each field by use of the University of Arizona Cotton Monitoring System (UA-CMS) for points such as variety, planting date, fertility management, irrigation schedules, irrigation termination, defoliation, etc. Routine plant measurements were conducted to monitor crop growth and development and to identify fruiting patterns and retention through the season. As the crop has approached cutout and the lower bolls began to open, open boll samples have been collected from the lowest four, first position bolls (theoretically the bolls with the highest micronaire potential on the plant) from 10 plants, ginned, and the fiber analyzed for micronaire (low 4). From that point forward, total boll counts per unit area and percent open boll measurements are being made on 14-day intervals until the crop is defoliated. Following defoliation, final plant maps were performed. Relationships among low 4 samples micronaire, irrigation termination (IT), defoliation, and final crop micronaire were analyzed.

Problems associated with increasing trends towards high micronaire values for Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) have been a matter of concern for the Arizona cotton industry in recent years. The discounts on fiber value associated with high micronaire has been compounded by the fact that market prices for cotton fiber has been very low in recent years and yields have been stable at best. An evaluation of recent yield and fiber quality data from a number of locations in Arizona was evaluated in relation to trends within Arizona and across the U.S. cotton belt. Results indicate similar patterns exist in terms of stable yields (yield plateau) and increasing micronaire values between Arizona and other U.S. cotton producing states. The conclusion is presented that these patterns are at least due in part to a common genetic base for varieties that grown in Arizona and beltwide. There also appears to be some distinct relationships associated with high micronaire with region and individual farm management practices.

Field experiments were conducted in 2004 and 2005 at the University of Arizona Maricopa Agricultural Center (1,175ft. elevation) to evaluate the effects of five irrigation termination (IT1, IT2, IT3, IT4, and IT5) dates on yield and fiber micronaire of eleven Upland cotton varieties and one Pima variety. In addition, the economic relationships of IT treatments were also evaluated. The experimental design was a split plot in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The main treatments included the five IT dates and the subunits consisted of 11 Upland varieties and a Pima variety. The first two IT treatments (IT1 and IT2) were imposed with the intention of terminating irrigations very early and pre-maturely at peak bloom. Based upon current UA recommendations for IT to complete a single cycle fruit set, the more optimal date of IT would have included one or two additional irrigations (beyond IT1 and IT2). In this experiment, IT2 was structured to provide an additional (one) irrigation just past peak bloom. For the IT3 plots, the intention was to attempt to time termination in advance of cutout. The 2004 and 2005 IT4 and IT5 were imposed to attempt to complete the primary fruiting cycle development and produce a second cycle fruit set that require irrigations until late August and late September, respectively. In general, lint yield and micronaire results revealed significant differences among the IT treatments and varieties. In a similar fashion to a previous set of IT experiments (2000-2002), lint yield and micronaire values consistently increased with later IT dates. The best combined lint yield and micronaire results were achieved with IT4 date, which received 12 and 18 in. less irrigation water than IT5 in 2004 and 2005, respectively. In 2004 and 2005, the 12 and 18 in. water saved equate to approximately 20% and 30% less water used under the conventional practice, respectively. The average marginal value of water for all eleven Upland varieties in going from IT1 to IT2, IT2 to IT3, IT3 to IT4, and IT4 to IT5 for November 2004 prices and low carrying costs is calculated at $320.07, $150.15, $100.54, and -$28.16 per acre-foot of water. If steeper mike discounts (November 1999), a lower base lint price (45¢/lb.), and higher costs (i.e., more costly insecticide and chemical costs) are imputed to extend the crop, the marginal value of an acre-foot of water for all Upland varieties and replications in going from IT1 to IT2, IT2 to IT3, IT3 to IT4, and IT4 to IT5 is estimated at $164.04, $48.15, $12.97, and -$94.79. Profitability and the value of water for extending the season varies quite markedly between different varieties and termination dates.

[Abstract]: The textile industry has a recurrent white speck nep problem in cotton. “White specks” are immature clusters of fibres that are not visible as defects until dyeing, after which they remain white on the surface of a darkly dyed fabric, or appear as non uniform streaks in the fabric. Both results render the fabric unsuitable for commercial fashion fabrics. The white speck potential of cotton is difficult to predict except in extremely immature cottons. Competitive synthetic fibres are uniform in length and strength and never have a maturity problem resulting in dye defects. They are much more predictable in the mill. As a result, cotton faces the risk of being replaced by synthetic fibres. Industry requires a method to predict fabric quality from cotton bale fibre properties to minimize this risk. This research addresses the problem of predicting white specks in dyed cotton fabrics. It is part of a large study, which is supported jointly by US and Australian agencies. The main objective is to predict fabric quality from bale fibre properties given controlled gin and mill processing. Gin and mill processing must be controlled so that field and varietal effects can be seen without the interaction of mechanical processing differences. This results in achieving other objectives, including the provision of baseline data for Australian varieties, ginning effects and comparison of ring and open-end spinning. Initially a reliable method for measuring white specks had to be found. Several systems have been evaluated and are reported here. The systems accuracy was compared using fabrics from the US Extreme Variety Study (EVS), which was grown specifically to have different levels of white specks. The fabrics made from the US (Leading Variety Study 1993 (LVS) and The American Textile Manufacturers Institute (ATMI) Cotton Variety Processing Trials, 2001) and the Australian (1998 & 1999) variety studies were analysed using AutoRate-2-03, the best of the image analysis systems studied. The final release of AutoRate (February 2003) was developed by Dr. Bugao Xu to measure white specks on dark fabrics in conjunction with this research. This final analysis of these studies results in white speck prediction equations from high-speed fibre measurement systems. This information should be immediately useful to as a tool to measure the effects of field and ginning practices on the levels of white specks without having to carry the research out to finished fabrics. Cotton breeders will be able to use the equations in the development of new varieties with low white speck potential, by eliminating varieties with high white speck potential early on. The research will continue on a much larger scale in the US and hopefully a WSP (White Speck Potential) value will be incorporated into the US Cotton Grading System.

Arizona has experienced a trend toward increasing fiber micronaire values in recent years resulting in substantial discounts on fiber value. There is some evidence to suggest that irrigation termination management can impact fiber micronaire. A single field study was conducted in 2000 at the Maricopa Agricultural Center (1,175ft. elevation) to evaluate the effects of three dates of irrigation termination on the yield of 13 Upland cotton varieties. Planting date was 6 April (668 HU/Jan 1 86/55° F thresholds). Three dates of irrigation termination (IT1, IT2, and IT3) were imposed based upon crop development into cutout. The earliest irrigation termination date, IT1 (24 July) was made slightly ahead of an optimum date to provide sufficient soil-water such that bolls set at the end of the first fruiting cycle would not be water stressed and could be fully matured. Thus, the IT1 date was imposed to try to reduce overall micronaire. The second termination (IT2) date was 17 August, and provided one additional irrigation over an optimal point for the first cycle fruit set and two irrigations beyond IT1. The final (IT3) date was 15 September, which was staged so that soil moisture would be sufficient for the development of bolls set up through the last week of September thus providing full top-crop potential. Lint yield and micronaire results revealed significant differences among the IT treatments. Micronaire and lint yield values increased with later IT dates.

Les fibres textiles sont couramment caractérisées par beaucoup de paramètres liés à la longueur, à la finesse, à la maturité, à la ténacité, etc. Cependant peu d'études concernent la caractérisation de l'état de surface de ces fibres ou ses propriétés frictionnelles. Ceci est davantage visible dans les études reliant les propriétés du fil à celles des fibres qui le composent. Dans ce cadre, le but de cette étude était, d'une part, de concevoir un dispositif expérimental simple et fiable pour caractériser le frottement inter-fibre et, d'autre part, d'établir par son intermédiaire des tendances de relations entre les caractéristiques des fibres et des fils. Nous avons commencé par concevoir un appareil simple de mesure de la force nécessaire pour dissocier un ruban sous pression inter-fibre contrôlée. Il est composé de deux chariots identiques, un des chariots est fixe, tandis que l'autre glisse sur un rail et se déplace à vitesse constante. Nous avons testé notre dispositif à différentes charges, vitesses et titres de ruban. Les études ont montré que dans le domaine expérimental utilisé, l'effet de la vitesse était négligeable alors que l'effet de la charge était hautement significatif. Le modèle qui décrit la force de frottement est inspiré par celui de Bowden et Tabor dans lequel la force de frottement et la charge normale sont normalisés par le nombre de fibres dans le ruban. Ce modèle a été validé dans un deuxième temps par une campagne d'essais sur 1 1 cotons différents. Cette deuxième étude a mis en évidence des pistes très intéressantes concernant l'effet du frottement sur les caractéristiques du fil, notamment sur sa ténacité. En effet, la force du frottement n'intervient pas directement sur la ténacité du fil, mais affecte de façon directe les paramètres de régularité du fil et se sont ces derniers qui déterminent en partie la ténacité du filThe textile fibres are commonly characterized by many parameters related to the length, fineness, maturity, tenacity, and so, on. But few studies related tc, the characterization of the surface properties of these fibres or their frictional properties. This is more clearly seen in the studies relating the yarn and the fibre properties. In this côntext, the purpose of this study was, first, to design a simple and reliable device to characterize the inter-fibre friction and, secondly, to establish, by the means of the inter fibre frictional properties, some trends of relations between the fibre and yarn characteristics. We started by designing a simple device for measuring the force required to break a sliver under controlled inter-fibre pressure. It consists of two identical carriages, one is fixed, while the Cher slides on a rail and is moving at a constant speed. We tested our device at different loads, speeds and sliver count. The results have shown that in our experimental domain, the effect of speed was negligible while the effect of the load was highly significant. The model that describes the friction force is inspired by that of Bowden and Tabor in which the frictional force and the normal charge are normalized by the number of fibres in the sliver. This model was validated in a second stage by a series of tests on 1 1 different cottons. This second study highlighted some very interesting idea on the effect of friction on the yarn characteristics, especially on his tenacity. Really, the friction force does not affect directly the yarn tenacity, but directly affects the regularity parameters of the yarn and these last, which determine party the yarn tenacity

A field experiment was conducted during the 2002 growing season to evaluate a central Arizona grower’s method of addressing cotton fiber micronaire based on the management and timing of his agronomic inputs. The success of his inseason management, irrigation termination decision combined with his method of defoliation has led to a consistent production of premium fiber micronaire in recent years. Steps to accomplish crop defoliation and the subsequent mixing of seed cotton from the top (younger) and lower (older) bolls achieved at harvest are intended to keep the micronaire at premium levels and further prevent discounts on the crop. A companion study was conducted at the University of Arizona Maricopa Agricultural Center (MAC-1,175 ft. elevation) in an effort to duplicate the grower’s late season crop management operations. This study consisted of two treatments, a control (conventional) which received an application of 10 oz. Ginstar combined with ½ pt. surfactant in 20 gal./acre carrier and a treatment which received the conventional treatment in addition to a pre-defoliation Accelerate and a post-defoliation Gramoxone applications consistent with the grower’s methods. Plant growth and development measurements taken inseason revealed that height to node ratio (HNR) and fruit retention (FR) levels estimates were similar for both sites (grower fields and MAC study). Lint yield estimates indicated no difference between the conventional defoliation and the treatment receiving additional compounds at MAC. Results of the analyses performed on final micronaire data also indicated no significant difference in micronaire values between the two methods of defoliation and late season management at MAC. Fiber micronaire values exceeded the premium level (>5.0) for both treatments at MAC. However, results obtained from the cooperator-grower gin records revealed that average fiber micronaire for all of the fields monitored in this project were at premium level (<5.0).

A field experiment was conducted during the 2002 and 2003 growing seasons to evaluate a central Arizona grower’s method of addressing high cotton fiber micronaire based on the management and timing of agronomic inputs. In-season management and irrigation termination combined with defoliation methods has led to consistent production of premium fiber micronaire in recent years.

Ginstar combined with 1/2 pt. surfactant in 20 gal./acre carrier and a treatment which received the conventional treatment in addition to a predefoliation of Accelerate and a post-defoliation of Gramoxone, consistent with the grower’s methods. At the grower’s location, data was collected during the 2002 and 2003 seasons. In 2002 and 2003, plant growth and development measurements taken in-season revealed that height to node ratio (HNR) and fruit retention (FR) levels tracked well and were similar for both sites and years (grower’s fields and MAC study). Lint yield estimates indicated no difference between conventional defoliation and the treatment receiving additional compounds at MAC in 2002. Average yield estimates were high for the cooperator-grower fields in both the 2002 and 2003 seasons. Results of the analysis performed on final micronaire data indicated no significant difference in micronaire values between the two methods of defoliation and late season management at MAC. In addition, fiber micronaire values exceeded the premium level (>5.0) for both treatments at MAC. In contrast, the data of 2002 and 2003 obtained from the cooperator-grower gin records revealed consistent results for average fiber micronaire for all of the fields monitored in this project which were at premium levels (<5.0).

The cotton fibre is one of the most economically important cells in the world. Each year, over 25 million tonnes are harvested and the industry is responsible for 300 million jobs world-wide, with revenues of over $120 billion in the USA alone. For such an important cell there is little known about its cell wall composition as well as the functional roles of these polysaccharides during fibre development. Although much work has already been done on the cotton fibre transcriptome, a study of cell wall composition during development and maturation is crucial in linking these data to further understand fibre differentiation. This research explored the developmental biology of the cotton fibre in relation to key polysaccharide structures and architectural properties in the context of cell wall development. This has been achieved by the development of methodologies for the detection and imaging of low level polysaccharide epitopes of the cotton fibre using molecular probes known as monoclonal antibodies (mABs) and carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs), directed in-situ to these glycans. Key polysaccharide changes were observed during fibre development, maturity and processing. Upon maturity, pectic homogalacturonan and xyloglucan were readily detectable at the surface of fibres after removal of the waxy outer layer. Other polysaccharides including arabinan, xylan and mannan, as well as cell wall glycoproteins were detected after treatments that removed the pectin-rich primary cell wall layer. This research shows that cell wall probes are powerful and useful tools to study cotton fibres throughout development, maturity and processing in the context of cell wall biology, though these polysaccharide changes need to be explored one by one to establish structure-function relationships. With the upcoming sequencing of the G. hirsutum genome, cotton fibre research will be an exciting field and the work presented here will provide a base for future studies, with potential for the manipulation of key developmental polysaccharides to alter the final fibre properties. The ultimate goal of improving cotton fibre properties will have significant economic, ecological and societal impacts for decades to come.

This study evaluated the effectiveness of defoliating at various heat unit accumulations: 630HU, 730 HU, 830 HU, 930 HU, 1030 HU, 1130 HU and 1330 HU and impact on lint yield and fiber quality. American Upland cotton variety DP 449 BR was planted on 12 April 2005 at the University of Arizona Maricopa Agriculture Center in Maricopa, Arizona. The experimental design was a split plot with four replications of each of seven defoliation timings. Final irrigation occurred on 05 August 2005. When heat unit accumulation reached 630 HU (on 20 August 2005), 730 HU (on 01 September 2005), 830 HU (on 04 September 2005), 930 HU (on 08 September 2005), 1030 HU (on 12 September 2005), 1130 HU (on 19 September 2005) and 1330 HU (on 27 September 2005) using the 86/55 F model chemical defoliants were applied. A mixture of Def (tribufos) at 24 oz/A, Dropp (thidiazuron) at 0.2 lb/A and Prep (ethephon) at 24 oz/A was applied using a high clearance research sprayer. The earliest treatments (630 and 730 HU accumulated) had significantly fewer open bolls at defoliation than those that received later treatments. At harvest, this trend disappears: the latest application (at 1330 HU) had significantly fewer open bolls than any other timing. Seven days after defoliant application (7 DAT), highest levels of defoliation were observed in the following treatments in descending order: 830 HU, 630 HU, 1130 HU, 930 HU and 730 HU followed by 1030 HU and 1330 HU. At harvest, there were no significant differences among mean defoliation percentages with the exception of the 1330 HU timing, which was significantly less defoliated than any of the other timings. Highest lint yield and gin turnout were observed in the earliest defoliation timings, lowest in the later timings. No significant differences in micronaire, length or uniformity were observed between defoliation timings. Differences did occur in fiber strength which was highest in earlier timings and lowest in the last timing, but all were above the discount level.

Arizona has experienced a trend toward increasing fiber micronaire values in recent years resulting in substantial discounts on fiber value. There is some evidence to suggest management can influence fiber micronaire. Approximately 400 cases were identified in cotton production areas in Arizona ranging from the lower Colorado River Valley to near 2,000 ft. elevation with grower cooperators in the 2000 and 2001 seasons. Field records were developed for each field by use of the University of Arizona Cotton Monitoring System (UA-CMS) for points such as variety, planting date, fertility management, irrigation schedules, irrigation termination, defoliation, etc. Routine plant measurements were conducted to monitor crop growth and development and to identify fruiting patterns and retention through the season. As the crop approached cutout and the lower bolls began to open, open boll samples were then collected from the lowest four, first position bolls (theoretically the bolls with the highest micronaire potential on the plant) from 10 plants, ginned, and the fiber analyzed for micronaire (low 4). From that point forward, total boll counts per unit area and percent open boll measurements are being made on 14-day intervals until the crop is defoliated. Following defoliation, final plant maps were performed. Relationships among low 4 sample micronaire, irrigation termination (IT), defoliation, and final crop micronaire were analyzed. Results indicate strong relationships with final fiber micronaire for factors such as total heat units (HU) accumulated by the crop from planting to IT, variety, region of production (environment), and green boll load at cutout. Results showed that as total HU accumulated from planting to IT exceeded approximately 2950 HU, micronaire levels significantly increased.

Cotton (Gossypium spp.) is the worlds leading textile fiber crop, and an important source of oil and protein. Insufficient candidate gene derived-markers suitable for genetic mapping and limited information on genes that control economically important traits are the major impediments to the genetic improvement of Upland cotton (G. hirsutum L.). The objectives of this study were to develop a SNP marker discovery strategy in tetraploid cotton species, SNP characterization and marker development from fiber initiation and elongation related genes, chromosomal assignment of these genes by SNP marker-based deletion analysis or linkage mapping, and genetic and molecular analysis of mutants affecting cotton fiber development. Phylogenetic grouping and comparision to At- and Dt-genome putative ancestral diploid species of allotetraploid cotton facilitated differentiation between genome specific polymorphisms (GSPs) and marker-suitable locus-specific polymorphisms (LSPs). By employing this strategry, a total of 222 and 108 SNPs were identified and the average frequency of SNP was 2.35% and 1.30% in six EXPANSIN A genes and six MYB genes, respectively. Both gene families showed independent and incongruent evolution in the two subgenomes and a faster evolution rate in Dt-genome than that in At-genome. SNPs were concordantly mapped to different chromsomes, which confirmed their value as candidate gene marker and indicated the reliability of SNP discovery stragey. QTL mapping by two F2 populations developed from fiber mutants detected major QTL which explain 62.8-87.1% of the phenotypic variation for lint percentage or lint index in the vicinity of BNL3482-138 on chromosome 26. Single marker regression analyses indicated STV79-108, which was located to the long arm of chromosome 12 (the known location of N1 and perhaps n2 loci), also had significant association (R2 % value 15.4-30.6) with lint percentage, lint index, embryo protein percentage and micronaire. Additional QTL and significant markers associated with other seed and fiber traits were detected on different chromosomes. Inheritance analysis indicated that both genetic models N1N1n2n2 and n2n2li3lisub>3 could lead to the fiberless phenotype. The observation of fuzzless-short lint phenotype indicated fiber initiation and elongation were controlled by different mechanisms. The penetrance of Li2 gene expression was observed in this study.

A field experiment was conducted in 2004 at the University of Arizona Maricopa Agricultural Center (1,175ft. elevation) to evaluate the effects of five irrigation termination (IT1, IT2, IT3, IT4, and IT5) dates on yield and fiber micronaire of several Upland cotton varieties. In addition, the economic relationships of IT treatments were also evaluated. The first IT treatment (IT1) was made with the intention of terminating irrigations somewhat pre-maturely. Based upon current UA recommendations for IT to complete a single cycle fruit set, the more optimal date of IT would have included one or two additional irrigations (beyond IT1). In this experiment, IT2 was structured to provide an additional (one) irrigation before the more optimal date. For the IT3 plots, the intention was to attempt to time termination to match the conventional growers optimal date. The IT4 and IT5 were imposed to attempt to produce a second cycle fruit set and irrigations continued until 27 August and 21 September respectively. In general, lint yield and micronaire results revealed significant differences among the IT treatments. In a similar fashion to 2000-2002 IT experiments, micronaire and lint yield values consistently increased with later IT dates. The best micronaire and lint yield results were achieved with IT4 date, which received 12 in. less irrigation water than IT5. The 12 in. water saved equates to approximately 20% of the total water used under the conventional practice. The average marginal value of water for all Upland varieties in going from IT1 to IT2, IT2 to IT3, IT3 to IT4, and IT4 to IT5 using November 2004 prices and low carrying costs is calculated at $320.07, $150.15, $100.54, and -$28.16 per acre-foot of water. If steeper mike discounts (November 1999), a lower base lint price (45¢/lb.), and higher costs (i.e., more costly insecticide and chemical costs) are imputed to extend the crop, the marginal value of an acre-foot of water for all Upland varieties and replications in going from IT1 to IT2, IT2 to IT3, IT3 to IT4, and IT4 to IT5 is estimated at $164.04, $48.15, $12.97, and -$94.79. Profitability and marginal value of water sometimes vary quite markedly between different varieties and termination dates as well.

The purpose of this research is to introduce a method for the forensic elemental analysis of cotton fibers for the purpose of increasing the discrimination between otherwise similar cotton evidence using microwave digestion Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) and Laser Ablation- Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS). A quadrupole ICP-MS and UV laser ablation (266nm) instruments were used for the analysis. A cotton standard reference material (IAEA V-9) was used to validate the developed methods producing good accuracy with typically 10 % bias and good precision (typically 5% RSD) for the element list: 25Mg, 27Al, 55Mn, 57Fe, 88Sr and 137Ba. It was found that the LA-ICP-MS method resulted in improved precision over the solution ICP-MS method. Twenty four (24) raw cotton samples and five white cotton T-Shirts were analyzed with the developed methods. It was also found that all the raw cotton samples from different sources were distinguishable from each other, as were all the cotton T-shirts resulting in zero type I errors and zero type II errors for the pairwise comparisons.

The cotton (Gossypium spp.) plant is a true perennial with perhaps the most complex structure of all the major field crops. Plants can compensate to a large degree for environmental as well as physical conditions. Much research has been conducted to arrive at plant population recommendations that optimize the yield and quality of the crop. Research conducted in the low desert regions of Arizona suggest that optimum plant density lies somewhere between 25,000 and 50,000 plants per acre. However, cotton crops with plant densities outside of this optimal range still have the ability to yield similarly and maintain premium quality. Accordingly, a research project was conducted comparing four separate plant densities. Objectives included determining effects on yield and fiber quality. The study was laid out in a randomized complete block design with target plant populations of approximately 30K, 50K, 70K, and 90K plants per acre as the treatments. All other inputs were equal across treatments. Throughout the course of the season, plant measurements showed no distinct differences among the treatments. Height-to-Node ratios (an indicator of vegetative tendencies) remained above normal throughout the season for all populations. Fruit retention levels remained optimal throughout the season. Lint yield results revealed that treatment four (90K plants per acre) yielded significantly less that the other three treatments. No significant differences in fiber quality were observed among treatments.

The purpose of this research has been to develop a textile finish based on chitosan that is a biopolymer. A fiber-reactive chitosan derivative was synthesized from chitosan with a low molecular weight and a high degree of deacetylation. The synthesis was composed of two steps. As a first step, a water-soluble chitosan derivative was prepared by introducing quaternary ammonium salt groups on the amino groups of chitosan. The derivative was further modified by introducing functional groups (acrylamidomethyl) on the primary alcohol groups of the chitosan backbone, which can form covalent bonds with cotton. The fiber-reactive chitosan derivative (NMA-HTCC) itself showed complete bacterial reduction against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli at the concentration of 10 ppm. The NMA-HTCC was applied to cotton fabrics by a pad-batch method in the presence of an alkaline catalyst. The 1% NMA-HTCC treated cotton showed 100% bacterial reduction against S. aureus. The fabric maintained over 99% of bacterial reduction even after 50 home launderings. The NMA-HTCC cotton was dyed with direct and reactive dyes without addition of salt. The color yield was higher than that of untreated cotton, which required a large amount salt for dyeing. The NMA-HTCC cotton showed better washfastness than untreated cotton, but the lightfastness was inferior to that of untreated cotton. The antimicrobial activity of the NMA-HTCC cotton was considerablely decreased after dyeing due to the blocking of the cationic groups of the NMA-HTCC by dye molecules.

Arizona has experienced a trend of increasing fiber micronaire values in recent years resulting in substantial discounts on fiber value. There is some evidence to suggest that irrigation termination (IT) management can influence fiber micronaire. Field studies were conducted in 2000, 2001, and 2002 at the University of Arizona Maricopa Agricultural Center (1,175ft. elevation) and in 2001 and 2002 at the Yuma Valley Agricultural Center (YVAC; 150 ft. elevation) to evaluate the effects of three dates of irrigation termination on the yield and fiber micronaire of several Upland cotton varieties. Three dates of irrigation termination (IT1, IT2, and IT3) were imposed based upon crop development into cutout. The earliest irrigation termination date, IT1 was made slightly ahead of an optimum date to provide sufficient soil-water such that bolls set at the end of the first fruiting cycle would not be water stressed and could be fully matured. Thus, the IT1 date was imposed to try to reduce overall micronaire. The second termination (IT2) date received one additional irrigation over an optimal point for the completion of the first cycle fruit set and two irrigations beyond IT1. The final (IT3) date (late September) was imposed so that soil moisture would be sufficient for the development of bolls set up through the last week of September, thus providing full top-crop potential. In general, lint yield and micronaire results revealed significant differences among the IT treatments. Micronaire and lint yield values consistently increased with later IT dates.

Arizona has experienced a trend toward increasing fiber micronaire values in recent years resulting in substantial discounts on fiber value. There is some evidence to suggest that irrigation termination management can impact fiber micronaire. Field studies were conducted in 2000 and 2001 at the University of Arizona Maricopa Agricultural Center (MAC; 1,175 ft. elevation) and the Yuma Valley Agricultural Center (YVAC; 150 ft. elevation) to evaluate the effects of three dates of irrigation termination on the yield of several Upland cotton varieties. Three dates of irrigation termination (IT1, IT2, and IT3) were imposed based upon crop development. The earliest irrigation termination date, IT1 was made slightly ahead of an optimum date to provide sufficient soil-water such that bolls set at the end of the first fruiting cycle would not be water stressed and could be fully matured. Thus, the IT1 date was imposed to try to reduce overall micronaire. The second termination (IT2) date provided one additional irrigation over an optimal point for the first cycle fruit set and two irrigations beyond IT1. The final (IT3) date (later September) was staged so that soil moisture would be sufficient for the development of a full top-crop potential. Lint yield and micronaire results have consistently revealed significant differences among the IT treatments. The micronaire values were consistently less than 5.0 for the IT1 treatments. Micronaire and lint yield values increased with later IT dates.

In 2015 the global fibre consumption was 96.7 million tonnes, which is an increase of 3.1% from the year before. Our high textile consumption has led to an increasing demand of raw materials and generation of textile waste. Only in Europe, a total amount of 4.3 million tonnes of apparel waste each year is sent to either incineration or landfills. Approximately 50% of the clothes we discard and donate are composed of cotton. In the future, the cotton production is predicted to stagnate since the world population is increasing and arable land to greater extent will be needed for food production. Thereby, it is important that we utilize the cotton waste generated. One of the most commonly used processes for recycling textile waste is the shredding process. In this method, textile waste is shredded back into their constituent fibres. The drawback with the shredding process is that the fibre length is reduced. The fibre length is an important property since it has a high influence on textile processing such as yarn production and final product quality. The aim of this thesis was to investigate how post-consumer cotton garments with different degree of wear affects the fibre length obtained in the shredding process. This was performed by analysing the input fibre length as well as the output fibre length. Additionally, several parameters were investigated: fabric construction and yarn structure. Degree of wear was categorized into two levels: low and high degree of wear. The fabric constructions used in this study were single-jersey and denim. The yarn structure were analysed in terms of yarn count, yarn twist and manufacturing process. The result showed that the fibre length before shredding was statistically significant longer for the materials with low degree of wear compared to high degree of wear. After shredding, it was shown that the fibre length reduction was lower for the materials with high degree of wear. This indicates that longer fibres give higher fibre length reduction. In addition, it was found that finer yarn gives higher fibre length reduction. The result also showed that the yarn manufacturing process has a great influence on the ease of shredding and the fibre length obtained in the end. Based on the result in this thesis it can be concluded that the shredding process needs to be improved in order to preserve the fibre length. The area of post-consumer textile waste is complex and the result showed that there is many underlying parameters that need to be taken into account to further develop the shredding process.

The results of three very different studies are presented. X-ray diffraction has been utilized for single-crystal structure determinations, fiber diffraction analyses, and in conjunction with molecular modeling of Cellulose IIII. Although each technique is different in its sampling, data acquisition, data treatment, and identification, the common denominator has been the use of x-rays. The single-crystal structure determination of ethylene glycol bis(tropane-3-carboxylate) is presented as an example of the use of modern single-crystal x-ray instrumentation including the use of coupled charged devices (CCDs) as detectors for accurate data collection and rapid elucidation of crystal structures. The structure determination of Cellulose IIII by x-ray diffraction and computer modeling is presented to show how the use of x-rays in weakly diffracting materials can generate a reliable structure and be a key component in model building. Finally, a study is presented in which x-ray fiber diffraction data is utilized to investigate possible correlations between the crystallite orientation, crystallinity, crystallize size and the strength properties of cotton fibers collected from various countries.

The lipid composition of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum, L) fibers was determined. Fatty acid profiles revealed that linolenate and palmitate were the most abundant fatty acids present in fiber cells. Phosphatidylcholine was the predominant lipid class in fiber cells, while phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol and digalactosyldiacylglycerol were also prevalent. An unusually high amount of phosphatidic acid was observed in frozen cotton fibers. Phospholipase D activity assays revealed that this enzyme readily hydrolyzed radioactive phosphatidylcholine into phosphatidic acid. A profile of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) for genes involved in lipid metabolism in cotton fibers was also obtained. This EST profile along with our lipid metabolite data was used to predict lipid metabolic pathways in cotton fiber cells.
