Abstract: According to the cDNA sequence from cotton GhCADl gene,primers were designed.PCR method was used to clone GhCADl gene and the expression of GhCADl gene in different tissues of cotton was analyzed by semi-quantitative RT-PCR.A length of 2898 bp sequence from genomic DNA of GhCADl was cloned by PCR.The genomic DNA of GhCADl contains five exonsand four introns.Analysis of these introns indicated that they are rich in AT.Furthermore,a SBF-1 factor binding site was identified in the first intron of GhCADl.Semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis revealed that GhCADl can be expressed in different kinds of cotton tissues,and its mRNA accumulated most abundantly in leaf.GhCADl expression in cotton tissues was leaf>boll shell>bract>petal>root> cotyledon.
