How Planting Density Affects Number and Yield of Potato Minitubers in a Commercial Glasshouse Production System [PDF]
Commercial potato minituber production systems aim at high tuber numbers per plant. This study investigated by which mechanisms planting density (25.0, 62.5 and 145.8 plants/m2) of in vitro derived plantlets affected minituber yield and minituber number ...
