Genetic breakdown of a Tet-off conditional lethality system for insect population control.

Nature communications - 18 Jun 2020

Zhao Yang, Schetelig Marc F, Handler Alfred M

Abstract excerpt

Genetically modified conditional lethal strains have been created to improve the control of insect pest populations damaging to human health and agriculture. However, understanding the potential for the genetic breakdown of lethality systems by rare spontaneous mutations, or selection for inherent suppressors, is critical since field release studies are in progress. This knowledge gap was addressed in a...
