Breeding against seed coat fragments in cotton fiber (Gossypium hirsutum L.) using image analysis on card web

The presence of seed coat fragments in cotton fiber is a major handicap for the textile industry. To meet the demands made by their partners, cotton researchers in Cameroon have developed a varietal creation program designed to combat seed coat fragments. Trashcam image analysis is used in the program to select varieties with reduced seed coat fragment content.
