Gossypium is a genus of 39-40 species of shrubs in the mallow family, Malvaceae, native to the tropical and subtropical regions of both the Old World and the New World. The cotton plants, sources of commercial cotton fabric, are included in this genus. Cotton shrubs can grow up to 3.0 m (9.8 ft) high. The leaves are broad and lobed, with three to five (or rarely seven) lobes. The seeds are contained in a capsule called a boll, each seed surrounded by fibres of two types. These fibres are the more commercially interesting part of the plant and they are removed by a process called ginning. At the first ginning the longer fibres, called staples, are removed and these are twisted together to form yarn for making thread and weaving into high quality textiles. At the second ginning the shorter fibres, called linters, are removed, and these are woven into lower quality textiles (which include the eponymous lint). Commercial species of cotton plant are G. hirsutum (90% of world production), G. barbadense (8%), G. arboreum and G. herbaceum (together, 2%). While cotton fibres occur naturally in colours of white, brown, and green, fears of contaminating the genetics of white cotton has led many cotton-growing locations to ban growing of coloured cotton varieties.
- Il cotone è una pianta arbustiva della famiglia delle Malvacee, originaria del subcontinente indiano e delle regioni tropicali e subtropicali dell'Africa e delle Americhe. Importata in Europa dagli arabi. La pianta allo stato selvatico può raggiungere un'altezza superiore a 1,50 m ed ha vita lunga. Viene coltivata in molti paesi per la produzione della fibra di cotone, utilizzata per la produzione di tessuti.
- 棉花（學名：Template:Lang）是锦葵科棉花属的俗稱，由四个栽培棉种组成，即亚洲棉、非洲棉、大陆棉（又叫细绒棉）、海岛棉（又叫长绒棉）。
- Gossypium est un genre de plante de la famille des Malvaceae. C'est le genre des cotonniers « véritables ». On compte près d'une cinquantaine d'espèces sauvages appartenant à ce genre. Ce sont des plantes herbacées annuelles, pérennes ou des arbustes. Parmi ces espèces, quatre d'entre elles sont à l'origine des variétés cultivées actuellement pour la production de coton : Gossypium arboreum, Gossypium barbadense, Gossypium herbaceum et Gossypium hirsutum.
