Flowering time in three diploid strawberry species grown in SDs or LDs at 18°C. Number of days (A) and number of leaves developed (B) until the first flower opened. Stolon-propagated plants were grown in LDs (18-h) or SDs (12-h) at 18°C for 6 weeks followed by LDs (18-h) at 18°C. Flowering time was recorded every other day and leaf number was scored at flowering time. Error bars represent the SEM (n = 10), and different letters indicate significant differences calculated by ANOVA and Tukey’s test (p < 0.05). For plants that remained vegetative, the number of days recorded (>80) or the number of leaves observed (>16) is shown.
