exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A non-genetically modified determinate castor plant. 
     
     
         2 . The plant of  claim 1 , comprising a loss of function genetic alteration in TFL1 locus. 
     
     
         3 . The plant of  claim 1 , comprising a loss of function genetic alteration conferring a determinate phenotype in a genetic locus selected from the group consisting of the genetic loci listed in Table 5. 
     
     
         4 . The plant of  claim 1 , comprising a loss of function genetic alteration conferring a determinate phenotype in a genetic locus selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 67-90. 
     
     
         5 . The plant of  claim 2 , wherein said genetic alteration comprises a deletion. 
     
     
         6 . The plant of  claim 1 , having a stable vigor for at least 5 generations. 
     
     
         7 . A determinate castor plant having been genetically modified to down-regulate activity or expression of TFL1 (SEQ ID NO: 3 or 4). 
     
     
         8 . A determinate castor plant having been genetically modified to down-regulate activity or expression of a gene selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 67-90. 
     
     
         9 . The determinate castor plant of  claim 1 , being a plant of an inbred line. 
     
     
         10 . A hybrid seed of the castor plant of  claim 1 . 
     
     
         11 . A hybrid plant obtained by growing the hybrid seed of  claim 10 . 
     
     
         12 . A plant part of the hybrid plant of  claim 11 . 
     
     
         13 . Oil produced from the plant of  claim 1 . 
     
     
         14 . A method of producing oil, the method comprising:
 (a) providing seeds of the castor plant of  claim 1 ;   (b) extracting oil from said seeds.   
     
     
         15 . A cake of the castor plant of  claim 1 . 
     
     
         16 . A method of producing a cake, the method comprising:
 (a) providing seeds of the castor plant of  claim 1 ;   (b) crushing said seeds so as to obtain crushed seeds; and   (c) removing oil from said crushed seeds, thereby producing the cake.   
     
     
         17 . A castor meal of  claim 1 . 
     
     
         18 . A processed product of the plant of  claim 1 , wherein the product comprises DNA of the plant.
