$2$. In contrast,developing and underdeveloped nations are rich in biodiversity and traditional knowledge related to bio-resources.
$3$. Traditional knowledge can be exploited to develop modern applications,saving significant time,effort,and expenditure during commercialization.
$4$. There is a growing realization of the injustice,inadequate compensation,and lack of benefit-sharing between developed and developing countries.
$5$. Consequently,many nations are now developing strict laws to prevent the unauthorized exploitation of their bio-resources and traditional knowledge,often referred to as biopiracy.
