Abstract: In order to identify the epsps-G6 gene successfully introduced into the cotton genome and analyze the copy number and genetic characteristics of the transgenic glyphosate-resistant cotton,eight transformation events(G6-1,G6-4,G6-5,G6-7,G6-11,G6-19,G6-20,G6-25)obtained by the pollen tube pathway method were used as materials. The results of southern Dot Blotting,double and single digestion enzyme Southern hybridization indicated that the exogenous epsps-G6 gene had been successfully integrated into the cotton genome and that four of the transformants contained a single copy of epsps-G6 gene. Three homozygous lines(G6-1,G6-5,G6-19)by self-pollination,with a single copy insertions and high glyphosate resistance,were selected to reciprocal cross with genetic background cultivar CCRI-49 and genetic standard line TM-1. The results of genetic analysis suggested that the three transformation events were inconsistent with the Mendelian separation rule of 3:1,which was not influenced by the cytoplasmic effect.
