Australian Cultivar Registration Authority

Australian Cultivar Registration Authority

The Australian Cultivar Registration Authority (ACRA) is the International Cultivar Registration Authority for Australia. It is a committee of representatives of each state's botanic gardens, the Society for Growing Australian Plants, and the Nursery Industry Association of Australia.

It is responsible for the registration of all names of cultivars of Australian native plants, in accordance with the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants. It also advises on plant breeders' rights, and registers plant varieties declared under the Plant Breeder's Rights Act 1994.
