Dataset describing plant materials used in the Colombian cotton production system

This dataset describes Upland cotton cultivars used for fiber production in Colombia in the last century. Data describing genealogy, yield and fiber quality traits of these cultivars (and the introduced ones mainly from USA) is scattered across grey literature which reduces chances of discovering, accessing and assessing this information. The data was extracted from grey literature mainly produced by ICA and CORPOICA (rebranded today as AGROSAVIA), the Colombian agricultural research agencies. The dataset also includes a description of cotton breeding lines developed by these institutions for adaptation to tropical environments specially for the monsoon and savanna climates: the LC and LCER series of Upland cotton breeding lines. Bibliographic description of the grey literature used for building this dataset is also included and can be provided under request.

本数据集记录了上世纪哥伦比亚用于纤维生产的陆地棉（Upland cotton）栽培品种。上述栽培品种（以及主要从美国引入的品种）的系谱、产量与纤维品质性状相关数据分散于各类灰色文献中，这加大了该类信息的发现、获取与评估难度。本数据集的数据主要提取自哥伦比亚农业研究机构ICA与CORPOICA（如今更名为AGROSAVIA）发布的灰色文献。本数据集还收录了上述机构为适配热带环境（尤其是季风气候与稀树草原气候）研发的棉花育种品系相关说明，即LC与LCER系列陆地棉育种品系。本数据集同时附带了构建所用灰色文献的文献著录信息，如有需要可另行提供。
