The digitalisation of seeds' DNA is generating the unstoppable growth of big data on digital sequence information (DSI). The paper analyses the legal vacuum for DSI, which aggravates the dematerialisation and fragmentation of seed, rendering it easier to control under legal, technological, social, financial and logistical enclosures. Open-source seed is explored as a governance mechanism across physical and digital spheres. DSI emerges as a critical juncture for seed movements, revealing how the construction of seed and food sovereignty is a digital and technological affair.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess63 Sociologíaartículoopen-source seedseed systems4th Industrial Revolutiondigital commonsdigital sequence informationseed sovereigntyenclosuresbig open datadematerialisationdigital feudalismin situexsituin silicores communis
