Abstract
An efficient and low cost modular system for the production of mini-tubers as a source for conventional seed tubers is reported. In this system, microplants are soil grown and produce minitubers of 5 to 25 mm diameter. The system is based on the use of pre-sterilized disposable plastic containers which allow micropropagation, weaning, hardening, and soil growing of micropropagated plants in the same container. Depending upon the cultivar, the modular system allows production of 2900 to 6600 mini-tubers/m2 in a glasshouse.
