Biological diversity refers to the variability of the living organisms from all sources. These sources include terrestrial, marine, other aquatic ecosystems and the ecological complexes which consist diversity within species, between species and ecosystem. Biological diversity includes the resources of all life forms.These forms mean hundreds of thousands of animals, plants, microbes, various species genes, the ecosystem and their ecological processes formed by a variety of biological and environmental interactions. Plant Variety Rights are a civil right to protect breeders of new plant. It is essentially a new type of intellectual property rights. The variety rights generally refers to rules that the state authorities in accordance with the laws and administrative regulations to give all of its cultivated varieties of economic and moral rightsSome developing countries (such as India, Africa), has made progress on the Plant Variety Protection system. they think Plant Variety Rights and the rights of farmers are equal, without a loss, or be relied on.You can see that from their legal name, These laws are "Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers Rights Act," "African Model Legislation For the Recongnition and Protection of the Rights of Local Communities,Farmers and Breeders,and for the Recognition and of Access to Genetic Resources."China has initially formed the framework for protection of new varieties of plants during these ten years. "Plant Variety Protection Regulations" and other related laws and regulations played a significant role in breeders'technical innovation in China, but there aren't enough considerations for biological. To solve the problems,we should do the following things. Firstly, in order to prevent a single plant species,we should improve the conditions for granting plant variety rights, plant variety right granted prior to the establishment of the risk assessment system to track post-grant evaluation system. Secondly, to prevent the loss of genetic resources, the proposed system of prior informed consent and benefit sharing of genetic resources system.
