Abstract
Cyclamen mite (Phytonemus pallidus Banks) can be eliminated from strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duchesne) planting material when transplants are subjected to a controlled atmosphere temperature treatment (CATT) at 35 °C, 50% CO2 and 10% O2 under high relative humidity for 48 h. In our previous research, CATT reduced cyclamen mite numbers by 99.9%, but its effects on plant vigour were not assessed. The objective of this study was to assess the survival, yield and growth of different strawberry cultivars (‘Albion’, ‘Murano’, ‘Seascape’) and plant types (bareroot plants, trayplants) that received CATT before planting compared to untreated control plants. CATT slightly increased the risks of plant mortality, and plant losses were greater for trayplants than for bareroot plants. CATT resulted in increased runner production for ‘Albion’ transplants but caused no effects on other cultivars. Fruit yields were either unaffected or decreased by CATT, suggesting stimulation of vegetative rather than reproductive growth. Based on these results, disinfection of strawberry transplants using CATT would be more suitable for plants destined for propagation rather than for fruit production. Our research highlights the need to develop a universal and easily adoptable treatment effective against multiple pests and pathogens to produce clean strawberry transplants.

Résumé
Le tarsonème du fraisier (Phytonemus pallidus Banks) peut être éliminé des transplants de fraisiers (Fragaria × ananassa Duchesne) soumis à un traitement de température en atmosphère contrôlée (CATT) à 35 °C, 50 % de CO2 et 10 % d’O2 sous une humidité relative élevée pendant 48 h. Dans notre recherche précédente, le traitement CATT a réduit le nombre de tarsonèmes du fraisier de 99,9 %, mais ses effets sur les plants n’ont pas été évalués. L’objectif de cette étude était d’évaluer l’effet du traitement CATT sur la survie, le rendement et la croissance de différents cultivars (‘Albion’, ‘Murano’, ‘Seascape’) et types de plants (plants à racines nues, trayplants). La mortalité après la plantation était plus grande pour les plants traités. Le traitement CATT a entraîné une augmentation de la production de stolons pour les transplants du cultivar ‘Albion’, mais n’a eu aucun effet sur les autres cultivars. Les rendements en fruits n’ont pas été affectés ou ont été diminués par le traitement CATT, ce qui suggère qu’il pourrait stimuler la croissance végétative aux dépens de la croissance reproductive. La désinfection des transplants de fraisiers à l’aide du traitement CATT conviendrait donc mieux aux plantes destinées à la multiplication plutôt qu’à la production de fruits.
