An <i>OpIE2</i> -DsRed marker disrupts female blood-feeding and shortens lifespan in the malaria vector <i>Anopheles gambiae</i>
2025-10-15
Abstract excerpt
Anopheles gambiae is one of the principal vectors of human malaria. Over the past two decades, transgenic mosquito strains have been essential tools for studying mosquito biology and developing genetic control strategies such as gene drives. Mosquito transformants are typically identified using fluorescent markers, which are assumed to be phenotypically neutral. While generating CRISPR-based gene drive strains car...
