Plant genetic resources

[Filuwaúrdjan]

Products derived from the genetic properties specific to one type of plant would be my guess.

And what exactly is the background on exploitation of these resources by multinational corporations in developing countries?

I think it refers to doing things like developing drugs out of plant life, like quinine.

But why would it be unethical?

I would imagine they're reffering to the practice of copyrighting such genetic information
