| 中文摘要： |
為開放植物專利投注了相當大的心力進行研議，目前已經研擬具體的專利法修正條文，對於相關問題都有清楚的掌握。不過在少數條文設計上，容或仍有仁智互見之處，尤其是在基因飄移造成的非己意種植農作物議題上。本文將介紹目前研議的修法重點，並且指出有待斟酌之處。接著對於基因飄移與非己意種植問題，說明當前問題所在，並且進一步提出具體修正建議。本文認為農民的非己意種植，甚難以出於善意為由，而免除專利侵害責任。因此本次修法時，應該以擴大農民免責方式加以因應，較為妥當。

| 英文摘要： |
Taiwanese Intellectual Property Office is now preparing to amend the Patent Act to allow animals and plants as patentable subject matters. It has proffered concrete provisions for this revision and demonstrated clear understanding of pertinent issues. In the meantime, however, there might still be disagreement on the approach and specific wording of this revision draft. Against the above backdrop, this article intends to comment on key issues of this draft, placing emphasis oil the problem of genetic drifting, especially the applicability of Monsanto v. Schmeiser ruling in Taiwanese patent law. The author is of the opinion that good faith alone is not enough to release farmers facing genetic drifting from patent infringement liability. A special exemption for this purpose therefore seems compelling.
