Why RIDL is not SIT.

Trends in parasitology - 1 Aug 2011

Black William C, Alphey Luke, James Anthony A

Abstract excerpt

History teaches that sterile insect technique (SIT) is a feasible strategy for mosquito population suppression. Female killing (FK) technologies developed later theoretically had greater potential than SIT, but depended upon chromosomal translocations. Unfortunately these were genetically unstable. New transgenic strategies have been misinterpreted as a replacement for SIT. Instead these strategies provide a...
