Remontancy of wild strawberry

Fragaria vesca L.

Remontancy in wild strawberry is the ability of the species to flower and fruit multiple times during a single growing season, driven by genetically determined day-neutrality.

In the reference 8 varieties crop Wild strawberry, where this is mentioned in the description.

In wild strawberry, remontancy is most commonly manifested in the form Fragaria vesca var. semperflorens. Unlike seasonal forms that are strictly tied to photoperiod, remontant plants are capable of forming flower buds under a wide range of conditions, which provides an extended fruiting period from late spring until autumn frosts.

The trait is evaluated through phenological monitoring, the duration of the fruiting period, and yield dynamics. Due to the continuous development cycle, plants deplete nutrient reserves more rapidly, which requires intensive mineral nutrition, moisture control, and may negatively affect winter hardiness.
