Abstract: Provided are compositions and methods for altering TFL1 levels in soybean plants. Methods and compositions are also provided for altering the expression of genes related to the timing of terminal differentiation of stem tips through suppression, mutagenesis and/or editing of the TFL1 gene. Modified plant cells and plants having a suppression element or mutation reducing the expression or activity of a TFL1 gene are further provided comprising reduced TFL1 levels and improved characteristics, such as reduced plant height and increased lodging resistance.
