The review assesses which AI, marker and quantitative-genetics methods have been shown to work in hexaploid, clonally propagated sweetpotato. It proposes a staged roadmap that begins with phenotypic selection indices and later pilots dosage-aware genomic prediction. An R implementation of the roadmap’s genomic-selection pipeline, tested so far on a simulated population, is released as open code with an archived DOI.
