Modelling the <i>Wolbachia</i> Incompatible Insect Technique: strategies for effective mosquito population elimination

2020-07-14

Abstract excerpt

The Wolbachia Incompatible Insect Technique (IIT) shows promise as a method for eliminating invasive mosquitoes such as Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus)(Diptera: Culicidae) and reducing the incidence of vector-borne diseases such as dengue, chikungunya and Zika. Successful implementation of this biological control strategy relies on high-fidelity separation of male from female insects in mass production systems for inun...
