It is common in Kashmir, West Bengal, Maharashtra, Assam, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, and some parts of southern India but is not commercially cultivated. It is distinguished by developing a knob (tuber) above the cotyledons due to a thickening of the stem tissue. The stem produces a fleshy turnip-like enlargement entirely above level. This knob is cultivated for human consumption as a raw or cooked vegetable, while young leaves are sometimes used in some regions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan
