Fuente: WIPO "tomato"
Plants, plant cells, and plant parts of the Solanaceae family having extreme structural dwarfism are provided that comprise a functionally inactivating mutation present within a cytochrome p450 class 85A1 (CYP85A1) gene and a Self Pruning 5G (SP5G) gene. The plants, plant cells and plant parts may further comprise at least one functionally inactivating mutation within an allele of a gene selected from: carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase 8 (CCD8); Gibberellin-insensitive dwarf 1a (GID1a); and Gibberellin- insensitive dwarf 1b1 (GID1b1). The plants, plant cells and plant parts are suitably from the species Solanum lycopersicum (tomato). Methods for making the plants, plant cells and plant parts are provided also.
