No, potatoes are propagated from the buds of tubers. It is vegetative reproduction rather than budding reproduction. Vegetative reproduction is a part of the vegetative organs of higher plants-roots, stems and leaves, which develop into a new individual after falling off from the mother.

Examples of asexual propagation include tuber propagation of sweet potato, creeping propagation of strawberry, rhizome propagation of bamboo, reed, white spear and lotus, tuber propagation of potato, bulb propagation of lily and onion, bulb propagation of narcissus and taro, and leaf bud propagation of begonia.

In agriculture, forestry and horticulture, rooting, cutting, layering, grafting and other methods are often used to separate a part of plant vegetative organs from the mother body and make them develop into new individuals, which belongs to artificial nutritional reproduction.

The characteristics of vegetative propagation are that only higher plants can differentiate their roots and leaves, which is an asexual propagation mode of higher plants, and it is impossible for lower plant cells to carry out vegetative propagation. But offspring are lower and less common. Although the offspring can keep the maternal genetic traits well, their variability is small and their viability is poor.

1, which can maintain the excellent genetic traits of the female parent.

2. The varieties that can't bear fruit in garden plants can be propagated through nutrition.

3, the breeding speed is fast.

4. Some plants with special shapes can be made.

5. Simple and economical.
