This volume contains the edition of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes that was presented in draft form and available for comment at the Plenary Session of the Fourteenth International Congress of Bacteriology and Applied Microbiology (BAM), Montréal, 2014, together with updated lists of conserved and rejected bacterial names and of Opinions issued by the Judicial Commission. As in the past it brings together those changes accepted, published and documented by the ICSP and the Judicial Commission since the last revision was published. Several new appendices have been added to this edition. Appendix 11 addresses the appropriate application of the Candidatus concept, Appendix 12 contains the history of the van Niel Prize, and Appendix 13 contains the summaries of Congresses. The full-text version of this article contains chapters 1-4 of the Code, and their associated references. All other material, including foreword, prefaces, and appendices, can be found in the PDF version.

Using average nucleotide identity to improve taxonomic assignments in prokaryotic genomes at the NCBI (2018, positive): “A bacterial type strain is defined in the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (ICNP) [2] as the ‘ nomenclatural type of the species ’ and is the reference point to which all other strains are compared to determine whether they belong to that species.”
Uncultivated microbes in need of their own taxonomy (2017, background): “In fact, there is no official classification but just an official nomenclature that is ruled by the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (ICNP; Parker et al., 2015), under the auspices of the International Committee for Systematics of Prokaryotes (ICSP).”
Guidance on the characterisation of microorganisms used as feed additives or as production organisms (2018, background): “International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes(5) and covered by the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (Parker et al., 2015).”
A review of methods and databases for metagenomic classification and assembly (2019, background): “the name Candidatus is prepended to the putative genus and species name) or are named only informally [144, 145], but are not covered by the standard nomenclature [146].”
List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN) moves to the DSMZ (2020, neutral): “Among a set of names in accordance with the rules of the ICNP [3], the LPSN curators select one taxon name as the correct name.”
Genome-Based Taxonomic Classification of the Phylum Actinobacteria (2018, background): “Nomenclature is also central to all aspects of microbiology as it deals with the correct use of names by following rules embodied in the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes, notably the nomenclatural type concept and the requirement to deposit type strains in two public culture collect”
TYGS and LPSN: a database tandem for fast and reliable genome-based classification and nomenclature of prokaryotes (2021, neutral): “6 million species (1) of which currently only about 1% (2) have a name that is validly published under the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (ICNP) (3).”
