CRISPR-based gene drives generate super-Mendelian inheritance in the disease vector <i>Culex quinquefasciatus</i>

2023-06-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Culex mosquitoes pose a significant public health threat as vectors for a variety of diseases including West Nile virus and lymphatic filariasis, and transmit pathogens threatening livestock, companion animals, and endangered birds. Rampant insecticide resistance makes controlling these mosquitoes challenging and necessitates the development of new control strategies. Gene drive technologies hav...
