Germline Cas9 expression yields highly efficient genome engineering in a major worldwide disease vector, Aedes aegypti
14 Nov 2017
Abstract excerpt
Significance Aedes aegypti is the principal vector of multiple arboviruses that significantly affect human health, including dengue, chikungunya, and zika. Development of tools for efficient genome engineering in this mosquito will not only lay the foundation for the application of genetic control strategies, but will also accelerate basic research on key biological processes involved in disease transmission....
