- Comment "Stem tubers (in potatoes, for example) often produce buds along the stem from which aerial stems arise the following season. Root tubers produce no buds, or produce buds only at the point where the tuber is attached to the stem of the plant. See also: corm [ IATE:1642859 ] and tuberous root [ IATE:1201738 ]'Tuber' is sometimes used as a synonym of tuber vegetable. However, not all tubers are edible (e.g. black bryony, chocolate cosmos); whereas tuber vegetables are mostly grown specifically for eating."
