      abstract = {This chapter provides an overview of key legal instruments  and institutions concerning the governance of genetic  resources that are found in areas subject to national  jurisdiction. The main normative focus of this chapter will  be twofold. It will consider the increasingly pervasive  role of international law in providing general norms,  notably through the 1992 Convention on Biological Diversity  and the 2010 Nagoya Protocol on Access to Genetic Resources  and the Fair and Equitable Sharing of Benefits Arising from  their Utilization (ABS), on the one hand, as well as  specialized norms, such as in the areas of health and  agriculture, on the other. The chapter also highlights  that, notwithstanding the proliferation of overlapping  layers of regulation, the ongoing endeavour to capture and  share the benefits arising from the utilization of genetic  resources in a more sustainable and equitable fashion is  likely to raise legitimate expectations as much as  unrealistic ones. It explains why it is so and suggests  possible ways forward to address the most outstanding  regulatory gap within the international regime on ABS.},
