Evaluation of gene knock-outs by CRISPR as potential targets for the genetic engineering of the mosquito <i>Culex quinquefasciatus</i>

2020-10-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes are a globally widespread vector of several human and animal pathogens. Their biology and behavior allow them to thrive in proximity to urban areas, rendering them a constant public health threat. Their mixed bird/mammal feeding behavior further offers a vehicle for zoonotic pathogens transmission to people, and separately, poses a threat to the conservation of...
