Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims the priority of U.S. Provisional Appl. Ser. No. 63/478,112, filed Dec. 30, 2022, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates generally to the field of cotton breeding. In particular, the invention relates to the novel cotton variety 21R635B3XF. Description of Related Art Cotton is an important and valuable field crop which is used to manufacture textile products, oil, animal feed, cordage and other non-woven products. The goal of a commercial cotton breeding program is to develop new, unique and superior cotton varieties. In cotton, important traits include, but are not limited to, higher fiber (lint) yield, earlier maturity, improved fiber quality, resistance to diseases and insects, tolerance to drought and heat, and improved agronomic traits. The breeder selects and crosses two or more lines, followed by generation advancement and selection, thus producing many new genetic combinations. The breeder can theoretically generate billions of different genetic combinations via this procedure. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION One aspect of the present invention relates to seed of the cotton variety 21R635B3XF. The invention also relates to plants produced by growing the seed of the cotton variety 21R635B3XF as well as the derivatives of such plants. The invention also relates to plant parts obtained by growing the seed of the cotton variety 21R635B3XF as well as the derivatives of such plant parts, oil, lint or fiber and cotton textiles of the cotton variety 21R635B3XF. As used herein, the term “plant” includes plant cells, plant protoplasts, plant cells of a tissue culture from which cotton plants can be regenerated, plant calli, plant clumps, and plant cells that are intact in plants or parts of plants, such as pollen, flowers, seeds, bolls, leaves, stems, and the like. Another aspect of the invention relates to a tissue culture of regenerable cells of the cotton variety 21R635B3XF as well as plants regenerated therefrom, wherein the regenerated cotton plant is capable of expressing all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of a plant grown from the cotton seed designated 21R635B3XF. Yet another aspect of the current invention is a cotton plant of the cotton variety 21R635B3XF further comprising a single locus conversion. In one embodiment, the cotton plant is defined as comprising the single locus conversion and otherwise capable of expressing all of the morphological and physiological characteristics of the cotton variety 21R635B3XF. In particular embodiments of the invention, the single locus conversion may comprise a transgenic gene which has been introduced by genetic transformation into the cotton variety 21R635B3XF or a progenitor thereof. A transgenic or non-transgenic single locus conversion can also be introduced by backcrossing, as is well known in the art. In certain embodiments of the invention, the single locus conversion may comprise a dominant or recessive allele. The locus conversion may confer potentially any trait upon the plant as described herein. In specific embodiments of the invention, a locus conversion may confer one or more traits such as, for example, male sterility, herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, disease resistance, waxy starch, modified fatty acid metabolism, modified phytic acid metabolism, modified carbohydrate metabolism and modified protein metabolism. In certain embodiments, a potential locus conversion that confers herbicide resistance may confer resistance to herbicides such as, for example, imidazolinone herbicides, sulfonylurea herbicides, triazine herbicides, phenoxy herbicides, cyclohexanedione herbicides, benzonitrile herbicides, 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase-inhibiting herbicides, protoporphyrinogen oxidase-inhibiting herbicides, acetolactate synthase-inhibiting herbicides, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid synthase-inhibiting herbicides, bromoxynil, nicosulfuron, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), dicamba, quizalofop-p-ethyl, glyphosate, or glufosinate. In another aspect of the invention, a plant of cotton variety 21R635B3XF is provided further comprising a transgene. The transgene may comprise a naturally occurring cotton gene or recombinant DNA. In certain embodiments of the invention, the transgene confers traits such as, for example, male sterility, waxy starch, herbicide resistance, insect resistance, resistance to bacterial, fungal, nematode or viral disease, and altered fatty acid, phytate, or carbohydrate metabolism. Still yet another aspect of the invention relates to a method of generating a plant of cotton variety 21R635B3XF with a modified genome by introducing a transgene or single locus conversion. A transgenic or non-transgenic single locus conversion can be introduced by backcrossing, as is well known in the art. The transgene may be introduced through
