Reproduction in potato plant:

  1. The potato plant undergoes asexual reproduction via vegetative propagation.
  2. Vegetative propagation is the reproduction process in which new plant offspring can be formed from vegetative parts of the plant like roots, stems, and leaves.
  3. Potato contains small eyes/tubers that give rise to leaves in them.
  4. In the presence of moisture, eyes sprout to form leaves. These leaves are capable of developing into new whole plants.
