TAM66274 – regular cotton comparison
Images showing gossypol-containing glands in the seed kernels and leaf blades of a regular cotton plant and the Ultra-low Gossypol Cottonseed
event TAM66274, approved by the FDA. Seed kernels were sliced into two halves to make glands visible. Note the lighter-colored glands in
TAM66274 kernels reflecting the reduction in gossypol levels by 97%. (Texas A&M AgriLife)
