Inhibiting Innovation?

This commentary from Tech News World questions whether software and genetic patents are actually inhibiting innovation:
The question arises, if a company can crack the genetic makeup of rice and patent it, control its use and for all intents and purposes, own it, what then will happen with all these patents on human genes? Will it mean that in being born, we are infringing on a number of patents -- using the genetic code without a license?
