Abstract (2. Language): 
As far as the applications of modern biotechnology methods to agricultural sector increase over the last 20 years, discussions over the regulation of plant genetic resources have become an important issue. The centre of violent disputes between developed and developing countries is intellectual property rights, recently regulated by the TRIP agreement of GATT. This artic le aims to tackle with this dispute by examining the global regulation of plant genetic resources from a different perspective. Giving a special emphasis not only to global intellectual property rights regime but also to access regime to genetic resources, this study investigates the valorisation of plant genetic resources. Drawing upon the institutional framework of Regulation School, it tackles with the effects of these regimes on the nationalinnovation capacity of developing countries and on the loss of bio-divers ity. To this end, it attempts to show that these regimes have accelerated the loss of bio-divers ity and they have no positive effect on the national-innovation capacity of developing countries.
