Abstract:
An experiment was conducted at the Horticulture farm, Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural
University, Dhaka, Bangladesh, during the period from November 2010 to March
2011 to study the performance of mini seedling tubers derived from true potato seed
as influenced by its size and clump planting. The experiment was laid out in a
Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications and includes four levels
of seedling tuber size, viz. 6-<7 g
