Claims12
A plant or plant part of the species Cucumis sativus comprising at least one copy of a mutant csaap2a allele of a gene named CsAAP2A, said gene encodes the CsAAP2A protein of SEQ ID NO:
- 1, wherein said mutant csaap2a allele results in no expression of the CsAAP2A gene or wherein the mutant allele encodes a protein having a loss-of-function compared to the wild type CsAAP2A protein, and wherein said mutant allele is not the mutant allele as found in accession PI197088.
