Broad in scope, this book covers key principles in pharmaceutical, industrial, and agricultural biotechnology within four parts.Part 1 details the principles of intellectual property and biotechnology. Part 2 covers plant biotechnology, including biotic and abiotic stress tolerance, GM foods in sustainable agriculture, microbial biodiversity and bioprospecting for improving crop health and productivity, and production and regulatory requirements of biopesticides and biofertilizers. The third part describes recent advances in industrial biotechnology, such as DNA patenting, and commercial viability of the CRISPR/Cas9 system in genome editing. The final part describes intellectual property issues in drug discovery and development of personalized medicine, and vaccines in biodefence.This book is an ideal resource for all postgraduates and researchers working in any branch of biotechnology that requires an overview of the recent developments of intellectual property frameworks in the biotech sector UR - https://doi.org/10.1079/9781780646534.0000 UR - https://www.cabidigitallibrary.org/action/showBook?doi=10.1079%2F9781780646534.0000 ER -
