  • MUTATIONS IN MADS-BOX GENES AND USES THEREOF
    Publication number: 20220002740
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to plants, such as Solanaceae plants containing one or more of a mutant Solyc04g005320 gene (or a homolog thereof), a mutant Solycl2g038510 gene (or a homolog thereof), and a mutant Solyc03gl14840 gene (or a homolog thereof), as well as methods of producing such plants. In some aspects, such plants have one or more improved traits, such as modified inflorescence architecture, modified flower number, modified fruit number, higher yield, higher quality products, and higher fruit productivity.

  • FLORIGEN PATHWAY TOOLKIT
    Publication number: 20200299705
    Abstract: Described herein is a florigen pathway toolkit that comprises mutations in genes in the florigen pathway in Solanaceae, such as mutations in genes in the florigen pathway in tomatoes, that are useful to quantitatively modulate or adjust the balance of opposing flowering signals to customize and improve shoot architecture and flowering (flowering time) for tomato breeding, particularly for fresh market tomato breeding.
