“…As mentioned above, the multiplication of sweet potatoes is carried out by vegetative propagation using cuttings or sections of stem or vine (Gupta et al, 2018). This is what is called a "seed".…”

“…The seed is usually obtained from the mid or apical section of the vine, which comes from well-kept young in greenhouses or the field. When the nursery vine reaches 30 to 50 cm, it can be cut for seed production and subsequent seeding in the field (Gupta et al, 2018).…”

“…In the case of a seeding system on mounds, there is no set distance and it is possible to seed 3 to 6 plants per mound. In India, a spacing of 60 cm by 20-30 cm between plants is recommended (Gupta et al, 2018). Generally, between 30,000 and 35,000 plants are sown per hectare (CARDI, 2010).…”

“…This is an herbaceous and perennial plant with vine characteristics, which is supposed to originate from America. The tuberous or storage roots produced by this plant are known in common parlance as "sweet potato" and due to their high starch content, they are used as a source of energy and food by populations in different countries, such as China, Indonesia, Vietnam, United States, Brazil, and some of the European Union (Gupta et al, 2018). Also, different studies have determined the nutritional content of sweet potato leaves and roots.…”

Sweet potato cultivation is one of the most important root crops in many tropical and subtropical countries. The high energy and nutritional content of sweet potato roots and leaves, their adaptive developmental properties, and low input requirements have facilitated their extensive production in Asia, Africa, and America. This productive development of the crop has allowed the identification of relevant agronomic aspects for obtaining high yields and an optimal sweet potato crop. Thus, in this review, it was sought to expose the most important agronomic aspects associated with Ipomoea batatas cultivation. Initially, the morphological and growth characteristics of sweet potatoes were discussed, including the different commercially available varieties. Subsequently, the methodology for selecting planting material, soil preparation, and seeding process was discussed. It included an exposition of the fertilizers and nutritional supplements used in the crop, and the management of pests or diseases that cause losses and decrease root yield. Finally, agronomic aspects associated with sweet potato harvesting were discussed, including types and storage processes.

During 2012–14, 737 sweetpotato, Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam. (Convolvulaceae), plant introduction (PI) accessions from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service (USDA, ARS) sweetpotato germplasm collection were evaluated for several phenotypic leaf and plant characteristics, and a photographic record of each accession was made. Data were prepared for placement in the USDA, ARS Germplasm Resources Information Network (GRIN) database and the sweetpotato ontology. The parameters recorded for each genotype were canopy coverage, vine length, general leaf outline, leaf lobing, shape of the central leaf lobe, number of leaf points, leaf petiole length, leaf width, leaf length, leaf width × length, and leaf width/length (aspect ratio). The data indicate that there is wide genetic diversity for vegetative phenotypic characteristics within the USDA, ARS sweetpotato germplasm collection. This study provides important phenotype information for the USDA, ARS sweetpotato collection that has been lacking and can be used for curation of the collection and by researchers and breeders working with this important global food crop.
