The 184 accessions collected will add to the cotton germplasm diversity of the #Gossypium# Collection. The cotton collecting expedition was a collaborative project between USDA-ARS, CIRAD (Centre de Cooperation Internati- onal en Recherche Agronomique pour le Développement), France, and FAO-UN (Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations).
