9.2.0 Latin names
Family: Fabaceae, (Leguminosae) pea family
It appears as upper-case and lower-case, and italics are recommended.
Family is a basic taxonomic grouping ranking above genus and below order.
Family names end in -aceae, except for some older names, e.g. the former Leguminosae above.
Genus: Pisum, pea
It appears as upper-case initial letter and italics are recommended.
It is a noun with gender masculine or feminine or neuter
The plural term is genera
If the same genus is mentioned, then following the first name the following name is abbreviated, e.g. P. sativum.
Species: sativum, garden pea
It appears in lower case italics
It is usually an adjective
The binomial combination of "genus + species" gives the name of the plant, e.g. Pisum sativum
If a species is not known, use "sp.", e.g. Pisum sp.
If referring to all the species in a genus, use "spp.", e.g. Pisum spp.
A species first named by Carl Linnaeus, 1707 - 1778, may be still named as follows: forage pea (Pisum arvense L.)
Subspecies
It appears as lower case italics
It is preceded by "subsp." in lower case Roman type.
Variety
Other plants in the species or subspecies differ in minor, but heritable characters.
It appears as lower case italics
It is preceded by "var." in lower case Roman type, e.g. the snow pea (Pisum sativum var. saccharatum)
Cultivar
It appears as upper-case and lower-case roman type with single quotation marks.
Grevillea 'Robyn Gordon', is a man-made hybrid between two species.
Asparagus bean, Vigna unguiculata 'Sesquipedalis'
Name of Plant
The names of plants is governed by the last revision of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, based on its original description,
dating back to 1753 when Carl Linneaus published his idea of a binomial naming system for plants.
