A self-limiting Sterile Insect Technique alternative for <i>Ceratitis capitata</i>

2024-12-23

Abstract excerpt

Genetic biocontrol systems have broad applications in population control of insects implicated in both disease spread and food security. In this study we establish and characterise a novel split-CRISPR/Cas9 system we term Sex Conversion Induced by CRISPR (SCIC) in Ceratitis capitata (the Mediterranean fruit fly), a major agricultural pest with a global distribution. Using the white eye gene for toolkit selection...
