“…Exposure to chilling to a certain extent reduces flower induction and stimulates floral differentiation (Durner and Poling 1987), along with leaf number and runner formation (Bringhurst et al 1960;Porlingis and Boynton 1961;Piringer and Scott 1964;Bailey and Rossi 1965;Guttridge 1969;Braun and Kender 1985;Rice 1990;Kahangi et al 1992;Lieten 1997;Tehranifar and Battey 1997). In warm regions, chilling preceding the optimum digging date in the nursery may be advantageous for early fruit production, while extra chilling after the optimum digging date may reduce flowering (Durner and Polling 1988).…”

Neri, D., Baruzzi, G., Massetani, F. and Faedi, W. 2012. Strawberry production in forced and protected culture in Europe as a response to climate change. Can. J. Plant Sci. 92: 1021–1036. In Europe, the production of strawberry for fresh market in forced and protected conditions is increasing. These techniques were initially aimed at enhancing the earliness of June-bearing short day varieties. Nowadays, the objective is to have year-round fruit availability, forcing and preserving strawberry crops against adverse weather conditions. The new high-quality low-chilling varieties widely expanded winter–spring strawberry production in the Mediterranean climate with autumn planting, while the diffusion of day-neutral ever-bearing varieties increased spring–summer yields in more continental climates, avoiding the extremely cold winter with spring planting. Finally, the use of tray-plants significantly increased late summer–fall strawberry production with summer programmed planting. The present review analyzes the recent evolution of strawberry cultivars and cultivation systems under plastic tunnels and in greenhouses. The physiological effects on plant architecture and propagation are discussed. In conclusion, we can affirm that strawberry growers are facing climate change with innovations in cultivated varieties and cultural techniques, and by the integration of the different production areas, with their specific optimum yield seasons, to continuously fulfill the demands of the European market.

“…Early planting encourages vegetative growth. On the other hand late planting exposes plant to high temperature zone of climate cycle which shortens developmental phases and thus reduces yield (Rice, 1990). However, cultivar differences in response to high temperature have not been sufficiently reported.…”

Effects of planting time on phenology of five strawberry genotypes Sweet Charlie, Festival,Camarosa, FA 008, and BARI strawberry-1 were evaluated at Bangladesh Agricultural ResearchInstitute in two consecutive years 2009-2010 and 2010-2011. Sweet Charlie took the shorter time tobegin flowering, followed by BARI Strawberry-1 and Festival when planted in 1st October. GenotypeFA 008 took longer time to flower when planted in 1st December. Days to flowering of all the varietieswas found to decrease with the increase in air temperature. Regardless of planting year, the genotype FA005 followed by Camarosa and Festival, planted on 1st September, exhibited the longest harvest duration,while Sweet Charlie planted on 1st December exhibited the shortest harvest duration in both years.Genotype Festival planted on October yielded fruit with the greatest fruit weight, followed by SweetCharlie and Camarosa planted on the same date. Plants of FA 008 and BARI Strawberry-1 plantedin December produced minimum fruit weight. Maximum number of fruits/plant as well as yield/plantobtained from Sweet Charlie planted in October, while BARI Strawberry-1 planted in December yieldedthe least. With the use of quadratic equation it was estimated that maximum yield was obtained at ambienttemperature 18.5 °C then it was decreased with the increase of temperature. Strawberry planted in earlyOctober was found to be the most suitable in Bangladesh. Among the studied genotypes, Sweet Charliewas found to be superior in yield and early planting, and Camarosa was suitable for late planting. Festivalwas found less sensitive to planting date.

RESUMO -A utilização de um sistema adequado para a condução das plantas-matrizes fornecedoras de mudas é de fundamental importância, tanto com a finalidade de favorecer a quantidade de mudas produzidas, como para a qualidade das mesmas; por outro lado, a disponibilidade de mudas em períodos não convencionais de plantio, através da utilização da frigoconservação, possibilita a produção de frutos na entressafra, propiciando maiores ganhos pelos produtores devido aos melhores preços alcançados. Os presentes trabalhos tiveram como objetivos comparar o sistema de produção de mudas de morangueiro convencional com o de produção em vasos suspensos, assim como avaliar a frigoconservação em mudas produzidas em sistema de vasos suspensos. Avaliaram-se a matéria seca, os teores de carboidratos nas mudas e a percentagem de sobrevivência das mesmas após o transplante para local definitivo. No primeiro trabalho, foi utilizado o delineamento inteiramente ao acaso, em esquema fatorial 3x2 (três cultivares: Campinas, Pelican e Guarani; e dois sistemas de produção de mudas), com três repetições de 30 mudas; no segundo trabalho, utilizou-se o delineamento experimental inteiramente ao acaso, com cinco cultivares (Campinas, Dover, Pelican, Sequoia e Sweet Charlie) e nove repetições. Neste último trabalho, após a coleta, as mudas foram acondicionadas em sacos de polietileno e frigoconservadas durante 120 dias em câmara fria (-1 + 1ºC). As mudas produzidas em vasos suspensos apresentaram maior percentagem de sobrevivência e maiores teores de carboidratos totais, com resultados semelhantes para as três cultivares estudadas. A frigoconservação de mudas de morangueiro produzidas em sistema de vasos suspensos resultou em baixa percentagem de sobrevivência de mudas no experimento.

STRAWBERRY RUNNERS PHISIOLOGY PRODUCED IN CONVENTIONAL AND SUSPENDED POTS SYSTEMSABSTRACT -An appropriate conduction system of the plants that originate the runners has a fundamental importance, in order to favor the amount of produced plants and their quality. On the other hand, through the use of the cold storage, the availability of strawberry runners in the off season periods, makes it possible to produce during the off-season period , so that producers can get better prices for the production. These experiments were conducted in order to compare the conventional strawberry runners' production system with the runner production system in suspended pots, and also to evaluate the cold storage of strawberry runners produced in suspended pots system. It was measured the dry matter and carbohydrates contents in runners and the survival percentage when the runner was transplanted to field production areas. The first experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design, with 3x2 factorial outline (three cultivars: Campinas, Pelican and Guarani; and two runners production systems) with three repetitions of thirty runners each; in the second experim...
