Abstract
The use of DSI of genetic resources could be a way to promote the sustainable conservation and use of genetic resources and biodiversity (one of the objectives of the CBD, enshrined in Article 1), or may be the newest frontier of biopiracy, which could be referred to as digital biopiracy. DSI of genetic resources (currently a placeholder term without an agreed definition) refers to the process through which the DNA of genetic materials is decoded and digitally stored in databases accessible potentially everywhere. Are international legal instrument effective and enough to face this new threat to the conservation of traditional knowledge and genetic resources?
