Effects of planting density and topping time on the source-sink tributes and photosynthetic carbon production in short-fruiting branch cotton

Abstract Background Short fruiting branch cotton (SFBC) has normal main-stem growth. However, the growth of fruiting branches is compromised by a short sympodial internode of 2–5 cm, which is suitable for a high-density cropping system. Increasing plant population density (PPD) c...
