“…A specific set of rules and standards has also been agreed on for the nomenclature of cultivated plants -the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants (hereinafter called the Cultivated Plant Code) -where the cultivar is considered the basic unit (Brickell et al, 2004). A few significant modifications have been made to the latest versions of the Cultivated Plant Code, but it is not revised/updated regularly, its last version dates from 1994 (Brickell et al, 2004).…”

“…However, the Cultivated Plant Code is more recent, and its consolidation process has just started. The rules of the Botanical Code are described in details in 62 articles, a number that was not altered in the previous edition, although the appendix ones changed from one to seven (Greuter,et al ,2000 ;McNeill et al, 2006), whereas the versions of the Cultivated Plant Code are shorter, its governing rules were presented in 32 articles in the two latest editions (Trehane et al, 1995;Brickell et al, 2004). While taxonomy focuses more on phylogeny for native plants, that is, how species and other taxonomic levels are related, the main aim of the nomenclature for cultivars is to highlight the differences and similarities among plants, which is the reason for a Group category.…”

-Passiflora edulis, the passion fruit native from Brazil, has several common names (such as sour passion fruit, yellow passion fruit, black passion fruit, and purple passion fruit), and presents a wide variability with the different rind colors of its fruits, which are very easy to notice. However, in 1932, Otto Degener suggested that the yellow passion fruit had its origin in Australia through breeding, calling it P. edulis forma flavicarpa, and that it could be distinguished by the color of the fruit, the deeper shade of purple of the corona, and the presence of glands on the sepals. These distinctions do not support themselves, for the glands are common to the species (although they may be absent), and the corona has a wide range of colors, regardless of the color of the fruit. A more critical ingredient is the fact that the external coloration of the fruit is a character of complex inheritance and is not dominant, thus displaying a number of intermediate colors, making it difficult to identify the extreme colors. For the correct scientific naming of agricultural plants, the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature must be used in conjunction with the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants, with the selections with significant agronomic characteristics recognized and named cultivars. In accordance with the international convention promoted by the UPOV, of which Brazil is a signatory, several colors (light yellow, yellow, orange yellow, pink red, red, red purple, green purple, purple, and dark purple) can be recognized in order to adequately characterize passion fruit cultivars within the species P. edulis. At taxonomic level, Passiflora edulis Sims must be used for any plant and color of sour passion fruits, in combination with a cultivar name for the selected materials. Index Terms: cultivar, nomenclature, Passiflora edulis, Passifloraceae, yellow passion fruit. PASSIFLORA edulis SIMS: A MANEIRA TAXONÔMICA CORRETA DE REFERIR-SE AO MARACUJÁ-AMARELO (E AOS DE OUTRAS CORES)RESUMO -Passiflora edulis, o maracujá é nativo do Brasil, apresenta vários nomes populares (tais como maracujá-azedo, maracujá-amarelo, maracujá-preto e maracujá-roxo) e grande variabilidade, sendo que diferentes cores da casca do fruto são facilmente observadas. Entretanto, em 1932, Otto Degener sugeriu que o maracujá-amarelo tenha originado através de melhoramento genético, na Austrália, denominando-o como P. edulis forma flavicarpa, e poderia ser reconhecido pela cor do fruto, pela porção colorida da corona, maior e de um arroxeado mais escuro, e pela presença de glândulas nas sépalas. Essa distinção não se sustenta, pois essas glândulas são comuns na espécie (embora possam estar ausentes), e a corona tem grande variação de cores, independentemente da cor do fruto. Ainda mais crítico é o fato de que a coloração externa do fruto é um caráter de herança complexa e não tem dominância, existindo, por isso, várias cores intermediárias e dificuldades para reconhecer quais as cores extremas.

Agronomic attributes of F 1 fresh market tomato hybridsThe study aims to obtain and select F 1 resistant hybrids of tomato for fresh market and evaluate their agronomic attributes in field conditions. The work was carried out at Nunhems Experimental Station, located in Paulínia, São Paulo State, Brazil, from February to June 2008. The experimental design was completely randomized blocks with 36 treatments, four replications and ten plants per plot. Based on the grouping of means by Scott-Knott test, the performance of hybrids for seven agronomic traits showed great variability among genotypes for fruit length and width with four groups of means. There was good variability for yield per plant, and plant height with three groups of means for each character. The traits fruit number per plant, cluster number per plant, and distance between the first cluster and the ground showed little divergence with two grouping means. HE-38 and HE-14 outperformed the standard Aplauso for fruit yield per plant showing positive heterotic effects.

“…The term nomenclature is traditionally used in biology in the restrictive sense it has in the titles of the international Codes of nomenclature that are currently in force for taxa of animals (Anonymous 1999), plants and fungi (McNeill et al 2006), prokaryotes (Lapage et al 1992;Euzéby 2007), viruses (Fauquet et al 2005) and cultivated plants (Brickell et al 2009). The term nomenclature was borrowed from the Latin nomenclatura, where it was based on the term nomen (plural nomina), "name".…”

Science is an encounter between reality and language. It is based on objects and facts, apprehended through observation and experimentation, and on descriptive, predictive and explanatory concepts, models and theories, expressed through language. Accurate, unambiguous and universal communication is crucial for science to operate and develop. As well stated by clear-sighted scientists and historians of science like Ernst Mayr, an important, although often underrated, ground of disagreement, or of false agreement, among scientists, is the terminology they use. Not rarely, different colleagues or schools of thought erroneously think they disagree (or agree), simply because they use different terms for the same concept, or the same term for different concepts. Therefore scientific terms, i.e., simple words, play a crucial role in the scientific activity. This is particularly true of biology, particularly of the fields that deal with the comparative and
