Genetic studies of phenotypic variants in the woodland strawberry, (Fragaria vesca)
The diploid woodland strawberry (Fragaria vesca) is a rapidly developing translational model for members of the family Rosaceae and other plants. This thesis represents some of the first forward genetics studies evaluating putative T-DNA insertional mutants in F. vesca. The observed phenotypes …

Genetic and morphological diversity in the Icelandic woodland strawberry (Fragaria vesca L.)
… desired commodity of most. The strawberry genus (Fragaria) contains considerably few species but only on grows in Iceland, the F. vesca. The plant is the most widespread of all strawberry species recently gone through whole genome sequencing. The aim of this research was to assess the morphology …

Improved regeneration and Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of wild strawberry (Fragaria vesca L.)
… genomics studies with wild strawberry (Fragaria vesca L.) the potential of identifying genes important in fruit crops. Fragaria vesca has a small genome size compared to the cultivated strawberry, Fragaria à ananassa Duch. (164 vs. 600 Mbp per 1C nucleus). This feature, in addition to a …

A biogeographic analysis of the species Fragaria vesca using microsatellite markers on a worldwide plant collection
The woodland strawberry, Fragaria vesca L., has the widest distribution of its genus. It can be found across North-America, all over Europe and into Asia. F. vesca has become an important research model benefitting from its small genome as well as both easy propogation and maintainance. A vast …

Seed germination, kanamycin sulfate selection, and the influence of nitrogen treatments on an insertional mutant population of Fragaria vesca
… Ac/Ds insertional mutants in a population of Fragaria vesca, various methods of seed germination, kanamycin screening, and the effects of varying nitrogen fertilization on diploid strawberry have been examined. Seed germination was improved to 42% in B5 liquid medium compared to _ on MS solid …

Characterization of T-DNA integration sites within a population of insertional mutants of the diploid strawberry Fragaria vesca L.
Cultivated strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) is an octoploid (2n=8x=56) species that belongs to the Rosaceae family and the high ploidy level makes genetic and molecular studies difficult. However, its commercial success because of its unique flavor and nutritious qualities has increased interest in …

Characterization of Polymorphic Microsatellites in Strawberry and Their Transferability to Other Genera in the Rosaceae Family
We investigated the transferability of 20 Fragaria vesca microsatellite primer pairs to 13 Fragaria vesca accessions, six Fragaria species and ten commercially important species in Rosaceae. Genetic diversity studies were carried among 16 diploid Fragaria accessions using these polymorphic …

Transposon Tagging in Strawberry and Potato and Characterization of Representative Strawberry Mutants
… nutritional values. The cultivated strawberry, Fragaria ananassa, is a fruit crop with a complex genome (2n=8x=56) whereas the diploid woodland strawberry, Fragaria vesca, has a smaller genome (2n=2x=14, 240 Mb) and lots of other qualities that make it a good model for genetic and genomic study, …

Biological wastes as plant growth substrate amendments
… disease of Helianthus tuberosus, Phytophthora fragariae disease of Fragaria vesca and Fusarium disease of Dianthus. Results showed that addition to shellfish waste stimulated substrate microbial populations and lytic activity and induced plant defense proteins, namely chitinases and cellulases. …

The relationship between fruit color traits and anthocyanin genes in diploid Fragaria
… identity of the c locus (yellow fruit color) in Fragaria vesca, a diploid (2n = 2x = 14) strawberry. Using PCR with degenerate primer pairs, intron-containing segments of structural genes coding for the enzymes: chalcone synthase (CHS), chalcone isomerase (CHI), flavanone 3-hydroxylase (F3H), …
