The publication analyzes tensions which are threatening to undermine the possibility of entry and benefit-sharing legislation to aid the collective pooling of plant genetic assets, and identifies possibilities to deal with these tensions in ways in which may well elevate the scope, application and sustainability of the worldwide crop commons.
