Pest control by the introduction of a conditional lethal trait on multiple loci: potential, limitations, and optimal strategies.

Journal of economic entomology - 1 Dec 2000

Schliekelman P, Gould F

Abstract excerpt

Advances in genetics have made it feasible to genetically engineer insect strains carrying a conditional lethal trait on multiple loci. We model the release into a target pest population of insects carrying a dominant and fully penetrant conditional lethal trait on 1-20 loci. Delaying the lethality for several generations after release allows the trait to become widely spread in the target population before being...
