The woodland strawberry,  Fragaria vesca , holds great promise as a model organism. It not only represents the important Rosaceae family that includes economically important species such as apples, pears, peaches and roses, but it also complements the well-known model organism  Arabidopsis thaliana  in key areas such as perennial life cycle and the development of fleshy fruit. Analysis of wild populations of  A .  thaliana  has shed light on several important developmental pathways controlling, for example, flowering time and plant growth, suggesting that a similar approach using  F .  vesca  might add to our understanding on the development of rosaceous species and perennials in general. As a first step, 298  F .  vesca  plants were analyzed using microsatellite markers with the primary aim of analyzing population structure and distribution of genetic diversity. Of the 68 markers tested, 56 were polymorphic, with an average of 4.46 alleles per locus. Our analysis partly confirms previous classification of  F .  vesca  subspecies in North America and suggests two groups within the subsp.  bracteata . In addition,  F .  vesca  subsp.  vesca  forms a single global population with evidence that the Icelandic group is a separate cluster from the main Eurasian population.
