Der Preis des "Grünen Goldes": Informationen und Informationsdefizite über den Marktwert genetischer Ressourcen

Abstract

Genetische Ressourcen sind Lebewesen, die genetischen Informationen in sich tragen, welche für die biotechnologische Forschung und Entwicklung von Bedeutung sind. Angesichts eines sich beschleunigenden weltweiten Artenverlustes stellt sich die Frage, ob durch den privaten Handel mit genetische Ressourcen ausreichend Einkünfte für eine Erhaltung von biologischer Vielfalt im Allgemeinen und Informationen in der Natur im Speziellen erzielt werden können. Die wenigen existierenden Zahlen zur Beantwortung dieser Frage zeichnen ein unvollkommenes und uneinheitliches Bild. Vorliegende Daten werden systematisiert, aktualisiert und kommentiert.
