한국 약용 연체동물의 유전자원 현황

The Nagoya Protocol on access to genetic resources went into effect in 2014 emphasizing activities for securing biological resources by cataloging the fitness traits essential for survival in the wild habitats. In this regard, although active research is ongoingly related to applications in human disease and medicine, research at the organism level is still insufficient. In particular, there are no studies pertaining to medicinal mollusks in Korea. In order to improve pertinent literature in this area of study, an attempt has been made to compile past literature and decipher the current status of genetic resources of related species. Taking the leads from the reviewed literature, researchers would be benefitted who wish to conduct related follow-up studies in the future. KCI Citation Count: 0
