Abstract: In this paper an attempt to investigate the effects of ultrasounds on potato conserved by in vitro
technique is presented. All experiments were carried out at 35 KHz frequency of ultrasounds for 14 minutes exposure time and two different slow growth media. A combination of these parameters with a lower temperature in the conservation room allowed an extension of period between two subcultures from 18 to 40 months, on the same medium, without loosing the viability and vitality of the plantlets.
