Why does a potato acquire a greenish deposit at the anode during electrolysis of potato?

You do not mention what you are using as the anode and cathode, but i would assume that given the green colour you are using copper or brass perhaps as the anode, and it is breaking down into a copper carbonate(which is green). By applying electrical current to the circuit you are speeding up the conversion of copper to copper carbonate(or similar).
