Potato tuber is an underground stem of the potato plant. A potato tuber has many buds $($also called eyes$)$ on its body. These buds act as organs for vegetative reproduction. When a potato tuber is implanted in the soil, then the various buds of the potato tuber start growing to from new potato plants.
