About This Item
TS EN ISO 5526 is a terminology standard that organises the botanical names used for cereals, pulses and other food grains. It helps technical users recognise when different commercial or scientific names refer to the same plant species, supporting more consistent product identification, data handling and professional communication.
Botanical names and ISTA plant names
The scope of the standard lists the botanical names of the main species of cereals, pulses and other food grains. It also includes the stabilised plant names used by the International Seed Testing Association (ISTA). In general technical practice, this kind of nomenclature work reduces ambiguity between local names, trade names and scientific names, which is especially useful in seed work, food trade, laboratory records and technical documentation.
Synonyms and practical use
The standard also indicates commonly encountered synonyms of the botanical names in an annex. That makes it easier to compare sources where more than one name is used for the same species. In broader terms, nomenclature standards like this support classification, sample labelling, database matching and international communication; they define names and equivalents rather than product performance or quality limits.
