The disclosure relates to methods for obtaining plants that exhibit useful traits by suppressing HDA6, CUE1, and/or SAL1 gene expression in plants. Methods for identifying genetic loci that provide for useful traits in plants and plants produced with those loci are also provided. In addition, plants that exhibit, contain, or harbor the useful traits, parts of the plants including seeds, and products of the plants are provided as well as methods of using the plants. Recombinant DNA vectors and transgenic plants comprising those vectors that provide for HDA6, CUE1, and SAL1 gene suppression are also provided.
