摘要

Aspects of the disclosure relate to plants, such as Solanaceae plants containing one or more branching events of a mutant Solyc04g005320 gene (or a homolog thereof), a mutant Solycl2g038510 gene (or a homolog thereof), and a mutant Solyc03gl 14840 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.
