Engineered underdominance allows efficient and economical introgression of traits into pest populations.

Journal of theoretical biology - 7 Sept 2001

Davis S, Bax N, Grewe P

Abstract excerpt

A novel form of underdominance is suggested as a mechanism that is able to drive desired genes into pest populations through the release of transgenic individuals over one or more generations. Such a mechanism is urgently needed by those working to reduce the impact of malaria by releasing strains of Anopheles, the vector of the disease, that are not susceptible to malaria parasites. We use simple population...
