Wikihud/Potato

From Superuser Wiki

Potato is the term which applies either to the starchy tuberous root vegetable crop from the perennial plant Solanum tuberosum and its subspecies Solanum andigena of the Solanaceae, or nightshade, family, or to the plant itself. Potato is the world's most widely grown tuber crop, and the fourth largest food crop in terms of fresh produce — after rice, wheat, and maize (corn).
