Climate change patterns indicate a serious threat to freshwater availability for crops. A selection of drought-tolerant genotypes is essential for breeders. Three key physiological parameters of abiotic stress, relative water content, excised leaf water content, and cell membrane stability were assessed with 68 upland cotton genotypes in Pakistan. The most tolerant and susceptible genotypes were evaluated in a greenhouse under controlled conditions. From the selected genotypes, heat and drought stress-related transcription factors were screened and included the following: GhNAC2, DREB2A, GhABF2, HSC70, HSFA2, GbMPK3, GbMpK17, GhMKK1, APX1, GHSP26, GHSP26, TPS, ANNAT8, GhMPK2, GhMKK3, GhWRKY41, HSPCB, HSP101, HSP3, GhPP2A1, and GbMYB5. Cell membrane stability may be a screening criterion for drought tolerance in cotton under field and greenhouse conditions. Under these conditions, the physiological and molecular analyses revealed that the genotypes CRIS-134, BH-184, and FH-114 were the most tolerant, and the genotypes CIM-240, CIM-446, and FH-900 were susceptible. The selected tolerant varieties can be recommended for cultivation in drought-prone areas. They can be used in future breeding programs for drought tolerance in cotton.

Los patrones de cambio climático indican una amenaza seria a la disponibilidad de agua dulce para las plantas cultivadas. La selección de genotipos tolerantes a la sequía es esencial para los fitomejoradores. Se evaluaron tres parámetros fisiológicos clave del estrés abiótico: contenido relativo de agua, contenido de agua en hojas extirpadas y estabilidad de la membrana celular, en 68 genotipos de algodón americano “Upland” en Pakistán. Los genotipos más tolerantes y susceptibles se evaluaron en invernadero bajo condiciones controladas. De los genotipos seleccionados, se evaluaron los factores de transcripción relacionados con el estrés por calor y sequía, como GhNAC2, DREB2A, GhABF2, HSC70, HSFA2, GbMPK3, GbMpK17, GhMKK1, APX1, GHSP26, GHSP26, TPS, ANNAT8, GhMPK2, GhMKK3, GhWRKY41, HSPCB, HSP101, HSP3, GhPP2A1 y GbMYB5. La estabilidad de la membrana celular puede utilizarse como criterio de selección para la tolerancia a la sequía en el algodón, tanto en condiciones de campo como de invernadero. En condiciones de campo y de invernadero, el análisis fisiológico y molecular reveló que los genotipos CRIS-134, BH-184 y FH-114 fueron los más tolerantes, y los genotipos CIM-240, CIM-446 y FH-900 fueron susceptibles. Las variedades resistentes seleccionadas pueden recomendarse para el cultivo en áreas propensas a la sequía y pueden utilizarse en futuros programas de mejoramiento para la tolerancia a la sequía en el algodón.
