Overview

ISO 1956-1:1982 - Fruits and vegetables: Morphological and structural terminology (Part 1) provides a concise, illustrated reference for standardized morphological and structural terms applied to selected fruits and vegetables. The document is organized as a two-part standard; Part 1 delivers an illustrated survey of 20 species, giving the botanical name first and the common name in English, French and Russian. Alphabetical indices in the three languages are included to aid lookup and multilingual consistency.

This ISO standard is primarily a terminology and illustration resource to support consistent use of morphological language across botanical, horticultural and food-sector activities.

Key Topics

• Illustrated morphological survey of 20 species: visual references that clarify structural terms for fruits and vegetables.
• Botanical nomenclature: presentation of accepted botanical names followed by corresponding common names.
• Multilingual terminology: common names and indices provided in English, French and Russian to support international use.
• Alphabetical indices: three-language indices for straightforward cross-referencing between botanical and common terms.

Note: The standard focuses on terminology and illustrated definitions rather than prescriptive testing or processing requirements.

Applications

ISO 1956-1:1982 is useful wherever precise, consistent morphological language is needed:

• Botanists and taxonomists - for harmonized naming and morphological descriptions.
• Horticulturists and agronomists - to align structural terminology in crop descriptions and breeding reports.
• Food scientists and quality specialists - for clear, shared vocabulary when documenting product characteristics.
• Standards organizations and regulators - to reference standardized terms in guidelines, technical specifications, and inspection criteria.
• Technical translators and multilingual documentation teams - to ensure accurate cross-language naming between English, French and Russian.
• Educators and reference libraries - as an illustrated teaching and reference tool.

Practical Value

• Promotes consistency in morphological descriptions across publications and technical documents.
• Supports international communication with multilingual indices and established botanical names.
• Acts as a concise illustrated glossary for professionals who require precise structural terminology for fruits and vegetables.

Related Standards

For broader context, consult other ISO and national standards dealing with food terminology, botanical nomenclature and product descriptions. These complementary documents can help integrate morphological terminology into labeling, safety, and quality management systems.
