Abstract excerpt
The determinate growth habit of plants reduces the number of internodes and shortens the main stem by terminating the shoot apical meristem through a transition to inflorescence. Understanding the genetic basis of this habit can help optimize crop yield and cultivation technology for vegetable breeding. This study aimed to identify the determinate-2 (de-2) gene responsible for the determinate growth habit in the...
