Cas9/guide RNA-based gene-drive dynamics following introduction and introgression into diverse anopheline mosquito genetic backgrounds
13 Nov 2024
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Novel technologies are needed to combat anopheline vectors of malaria parasites as the reductions in worldwide disease incidence has stalled in recent years. Gene drive-based approaches utilizing Cas9/guide RNA (gRNA) systems are being developed to suppress anopheline populations or modify them by increasing their refractoriness to the parasites. These systems rely on the successful cleavage of a...
