“…Wide natural and induced genetic diversity (Figure 1) [11] and populations of introgression lines [57] are available, which have already allowed the discovery of causal mutations of the perpetual flowering [29,30] and runnerless [10,11] The exploitation of artificially (Figure 4, Key Figure) induced diversity by mapping-by-sequencing to discover causal mutation is relatively straightforward in both tomato and woodland strawberry [11,58]. Exploitation of natural genetic diversity from woodland strawberry (Figure 1; e.g., for vernalization requirement [59], for fruit shape and flavor [53,57]) can be done by generating various types of populations [10,57,60] and by GWASs, as done in tomato [4][5][6]18,48,49]. For GWASs, the first step is to constitute representative F. vesca collections to control the effect of population structure [17,49].…”
