Abstract

Genetic Resources Access and Benefit Sharing Under Digital Sequence Information has moved quickly from a research idea to
something a working breeding or production programme can actually use, but the evidence behind it has not always kept pace. We
pull together the current evidence for genetic resources access and benefit sharing under digital sequence information, covering
the methodological, practical, regulatory and cost angles, with an eye on where practice has genuinely settled and where
researchers and regulators are still largely working it out for themselves. Selective, context-specific adoption looks better
supported by the evidence gathered here than either broad rollout or blanket avoidance.
