CRISPR-based gene drives for pest control

2021-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Invasive pests impact the environment, economy and society. Current control methods are costly and largely inadequate, and they often lead to unwanted suffering in target and non-target species. Gene drives that enable super-mendelian inheritance of a transgene may offer a more cost-effective, humane and species-specific alternative to current methods. By harnessing gene drives to distort the sex-ratio of the bree...
