The bill on IPR passed in 2001 as Protection of plant varieties and farmers Rights act (PPV&FRA) 2001 envisages that the new and notified/extant plant varieties will be registered and protected on the basis of their morphological characters i.e., Distinctness (D), Uniformity (V) and Stability(S) [DUS].
