Abstract: During potato tuber enlargement stage applying paclobutrazol (effective constituent 20 g/mu),can inerease the chlorophyl content by 22.8,net photosynthetic intensity by 56.700,inhibit vegetative growth of the parts above ground, promot distribution of photosynthate to potato tuber.Economic efficiency increased by 66.7%,the percentage of larger-size tuber increased remarkably,as a result, potato yield and commercial value both higher.

Key words: Paclobutrazol, Potato
