Improving the suppressive power of homing gene drive by co-targeting a distant-site female fertility gene

2023-12-08

Abstract excerpt

Gene drive technology has the potential to address major biological challenges, including the management of disease vectors, invasive species, and agricultural pests. After releasing individuals carrying the gene drive in the target population, suppression gene drives are designed to spread at a rapid rate and carry a recessive fitness cost, thus bringing about a decline in population size or even complete suppres...
