A theoretical approach to predicting the success of genetic manipulation of malaria mosquitoes in malaria control

25 Feb 2002

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Mosquitoes that have been genetically modified to better encapsulate the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum are being considered as a possible tool in the control of malaria. Hopes for this have been raised with the identification of genes involved in the encapsulation response and with advances in the tools required to transform mosquitoes. However, we have only very little understanding of the...
