The GeneChip® Cotton Genome Array is a single GeneChip brand array comprised
of 23,977 probe sets representing 21,854 cotton transcripts. Sequences
used in the design of the array were selected from GenBank®, dbEST, and RefSeq, and were created from the Gossypium hirsutum UniGene database (Build 2,
August 2006) and the Gossypium raimondii UniGene database (Build 2, September
2005). These sequences derive from the many contributors from the Cotton
Community. Some select sequences were generously made publicly available
prior to publication by a group within the Cotton Community specifically to
enhance the design of the GeneChip Cotton Genome Array.
The GeneChip® Cotton Genome Array is based on EST sequences obtained from four species of Cotton: Gossypium hirsutum, Gossypium raimondii, Gossypium arboretum, and Gossypium barbadense. The Array was designed in close collaboration with the Cotton Research Community as part of the Affymetrix® GeneChip Consortia Program.
