Engineering multiple species-like genetic incompatibilities in insects

2020-04-05

Abstract excerpt

Speciation constrains the flow of genetic information between populations of sexually reproducing organisms. Gaining control over mechanisms of speciation would enable new strategies to manage wild populations of disease vectors, agricultural pests, and invasive species. Additionally, such control would provide safe biocontainment of transgenes and gene drives. Natural speciation can be driven by pre-zygotic barri...
