De ICNCP oftewel de International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants regelt wereldwijd de naamgeving van cultivars, cultivar Groepen en enthybriden.
De ICNCP is van origine afgeleid van de ICBN en werkt tot op zekere hoogte hetzelfde, maar heeft haar eigen concepten en regels.
De ICNCP werkt binnen het raamwerk dat de ICBN vormt, als aanvullende regelgeving.

Een verschil is dat in de ICBN een naam gekoppeld is aan één of meer types (die niet noodzakelijk typerend zijn), waar in de ICNCP een cultivarnaam gekoppeld is aan een standaardexemplaar (dat wel typerend is).
