ABSTRACT:
An improved method for producing potato microtubers by tissue culture is provided. The improvement comprises culturing potato plants in a medium containing a high sugar content, i.e., 8% (w/v), for about 1 to 4 weeks under the light prior to culturing the plants in the dark to produce the microtubers.
