Plants have evolved phosphate (Pi) starvation response to adapt the low-Pi environment. The regulation of adaptive responses to phosphorus deficiency by the PHR1-miR399-PHO2 module has been well studied in Arabidopsis thaliana but not in strawberry. Transcription factor PHR1 as the central regulator in the Pi starvation signaling has been revealed in a few plant species. However, the function of PHR1 homologues in strawberry is still unknown. In this study, a total of 13 MYB-CC genes were identified in the woodland strawberry (Fragaria vesca) genome and the FvPHR1 gene was characterized. FvPHR1 contains MYB domain and coiled-coil (CC) domain and is localized in the nucleus. FvPHR1 also exhibits trans-activation ability. Furthermore, the P content in leaves of FvPHR1-overexpressing woodland strawberries was significantly increased by 1.38-fold to 1.78-fold compared with that in the wild type. FvPHR1 was also demonstrated to directly bind to the FvMIR399a promoter and positively regulate the expression of FvmiR399a in woodland strawberry. These results showed that PHR1-miR399 module is involved in the regulation of phosphate-signaling pathway and phosphate homeostasis in woodland strawberry.

Biopesticide transplant dips and foliar acaricide applications for control of cyclamen mite (Phytonemus pallidus) in strawberry.

Cyclamen mite (Phytonemus pallidus) causes injury to new growth of strawberry plants and is difficult to control because it is protected by folded leaves and plant crowns. Since cyclamen mite is easily transferred from strawberry nurseries to fruiting fields, dipping transplants in biopesticides may reduce initial populations. However, cyclamen mite numbers at 1 and 3 months-after-planting, and yield and cyclamen mite injury to fruit in the following season did not differ among transplants immersed for 30 s in Captiva® Prime, EcoTrol® EC, Landscape Oil, SuffOil-X® or Kopa Insecticidal Soap or the untreated control.

Strawberries are valued for their aroma, which is mainly determined by volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Wild strawberries, with broader and more intense VOC profiles, are especially important in breeding programs. Using HS-SPME-GC-MS, 126 VOCs were identified in the ripe fruit of 22 cultivars from four wild strawberry species.

Article Synopsis
- Phosphorus is crucial for plant growth, but excessive fertilizer use can lead to environmental issues; plants manage phosphate supply through intricate signaling pathways.
- The study focused on the role of PHR1 in Fragaria vesca (strawberries), showing that overexpressing the FvPHR1 gene enhances phosphate uptake and photosynthesis efficiency by activating specific downstream genes.
- FvPHR1 also aids in sugar transport from leaves to fruit, suggesting its complex role in improving strawberry fruit quality and providing insights for developing better cultivars with efficient phosphorus utilization and higher sugar content.

Strawberry fruits are highly perishable and have a limited shelf life. Therefore, effective methods such as essential oils (EOs) and edible coatings are required to mitigate spoilage and maintain fruit quality during storage. In the current study, Echinophora platyloba EO was extracted and subsequently formulated into a nanoemulsion.

Protein S-acyl transferases (PATs) are a family of enzymes that catalyze protein S-acylation, a post-translational lipid modification involved in protein membrane targeting, trafficking, stability, and protein-protein interaction. S-acylation plays important roles in plant growth, development, and stress responses. Here, we report the genome-wide analysis of the family genes in the woodland strawberry (), a model plant for studying the economically important Rosaceae family.
