Abstract
Potato shoots taken from sprouled tubers were cut into piecies and propagated fa vitre an modified MS medium. The muttiplica- tion rate of propagation was X 9 per month. Morphology of the plantlets incubated in longer day length (16, 24 h) was desirable for i vitro propagation, Cultures incubated over three months in shorter day length (8 h) showed loss of apical dominance and pro- duced erect scaly leaves but supported the growth to continue by branching, However cultures incubated at longer day length indi- cated reduced growth and produced mini aerial tubers on stolons developed in leaf axis.
