Spatial structure undermines parasite suppression by gene drive cargo

2019-08-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Gene drives may be used in two ways to curtail vectored diseases. Both involve engineering the drive to spread in the vector population. One approach uses the drive to directly depress vector numbers, possibly to extinction. The other approach leaves intact the vector population but suppresses the disease agent during its interaction with the vector. This second application may use a drive engin...
