Abstract
Gossypium is one of eight genera in the plant tribe Gossypieae in the family Malvaceae.1 The tribe Gossypieae is distinguished from related tribes by the production of spherical lysigenous glands located below the pallisade cells of cotyledons and leaves and throughout the bark of old roots and stems. The glands contain pigments which distinguish them from surrounding cells. Most of the pigments and other compounds in the pigment glands are toxic terpenoids and flavonoids. Thus, the glands apparently have evolved because of the added protection that they give against insects, rodents, and other herbivores.
