Verticillium wilt is one of the most important diseases affecting cotton production in China. The fungus, Verticillium dahliae, has a wide host range and a high degree of genetic variability. No resistance resources have been found in the available planting resources, thus presenting difficulties and challenges for our study. The long-term produc- tion practice shows that selection of disease-resistant varieties is the most economical and effective measure to control Verticillium wilt of cotton to reduce the yield loss and quality decline of cotton. In this paper, we summarized the genetic mapping population, the analysis method of genetic localization, the discovery, mining and cloning of disease-resistant quantitative trait loci/markers, and the analysis of their genetic functions, so as to provide informa-tion for the molecular breeding approach of disease-resistant cotton.
