3. A method of breeding a cotton plant comprising:
crossing the cotton plant of claim 2 with a second cotton plant to produce a third cotton plant; and
assaying the third cotton plant for the presence of one or more polynucleotides selected from the group consisting of nucleotides 2867-2906 of SEQ ID NO:1; nucleotides 2837-2936 of SEQ ID NO:1; nucleotides 2787-2986 of SEQ ID NO:1; nucleotides 2737-3036 of SEQ ID NO:1; nucleotides 128-167 of SEQ ID NO:2; nucleotides 98-197 of SEQ ID NO:2; nucleotides 48-247 of SEQ ID NO:2; nucleotides 1-297 of SEQ ID NO:2, and complete complements thereof.
4. The cotton seed of claim 2 , the cotton seed comprising in its genome event pDAB4468.18.07.1, wherein a cotton seed representative of the seed comprising the event in its genome has been deposited with the American Type Culture Collection under Accession No. PTA-12456.
5. A cotton plant comprising in its genome event pDAB4468.18.07.1, wherein the event comprises the polynucleotide of SEQ ID NO:17.
6. A part of the cotton plant of claim 5 , wherein the part is selected from the group consisting of pollen, ovule, flowers, bolls, shoots, roots, and leaves, wherein the part comprises the polynucleotide of SEQ ID NO:17.
