All are, surely (unless you're including "sweet potato", Ipomoea
batatas)?

This is catered for, in the current proposal, thus:
<span class="biota"> [1]
<abbr class="binominal" title="Solanum tuberosum">
<span class="variety"> [2]
Maris Piper
</span>
</abbr>
</span>
[1] assuming "biota" as the parent category.
[2] assuming the abbreviation "var" is not used.
