遗传资源作为私权客体的可行性分析

Analysis of the Feasibility of Genetic Resources as Objects of Private Rights

遗传资源作为新一代知识信息,在后Trips时代的生物技术领域价值日益突出,对一国科技开发也具有战略意义。遗传资源的表现形式不仅是生物体本身,还在于这些生物体内所承载的遗传信息。内在的遗传信息决定了外在的生物体性状,外在的生命体又将内在的遗传信息加以表达。正是基于此种特殊性,对遗传资源采取何种保护模式就关涉权利主体的利益平衡。

As a new generation of knowledge and information, genetic resources are becoming increasingly prominent in the field of biotechnology in the post Trips era, which is also strategically significant for a country’s technology development. The form of genetic resources is not only the organism itself, but also the genetic information that is carried in these organisms. The inherent genetic information determines the external biological character, and the external life entity expresses the inherent genetic information. It is based on this special nature that what protection mode adopts to genetic resources is concerned with the balance of interests of the subjects’ rights.
