摘要
随着生物技术的发展,遗传资源及传统知识的价值和作用日益得到人们的认识和肯定。而生物多样性公约(CBD)的生效和实施,以及逐渐出现的各种有关遗传资源和传统知识保护的实际案例,也使国际社会开始考虑如何通过各项措施切实保护自己的遗传资源和传统知识。在这样的背景下,发展中国家提出了应在专利制度中增加有关遗传资源及相关传统知识来源公开要求的主张。此建议在多个国际论坛中得到讨论,成为国际热点问题之一,也成为世界专利制度协调中的重要方面。对于这样一个重要而又复杂的课题,可以从不同角度加以剖析和研究。

The implementation of Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and some cases related to the genetic resources and traditional knowledge also make the international community begin to consider the issue of how to take measures to protect their genetic resources and traditional knowledge. In this connection, devdoping countries make the proposal of adding disclosure requirement of the source/origin of genetic resources and related traditional knowledge in patent system. This proposal is discussed in many international forums as one of the hot issues and become one important aspect of the harmonization of international patent system.
