Since
DocBook is all about technological (computer related) items there's no special
markup for biological terms as you need it.
If you do not have other requirements, you
could simply use some non-semantic inline markup like
<emphasis></emphasis> to get the genus and species names
italic.
If
you'd like to have <genus> and <species> as elements within
your XML, you had to customize the DTD as
described on http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/ch05.html "Customizing
DocBook"; then you had to provide the matching XSL routines for the new elements
aswell (see http://www.sagehill.net/xml/docbookxsl/CustomMethods.html#d0e4162 "Writing
a customization layer" ff.)
