Modeling confinement and reversibility of threshold-dependent gene drive systems in spatially-explicit Aedes aegypti populations
Abstract Background The discovery of CRISPR-based gene editing and its application to homing-based gene drive systems has been greeted with excitement, for its potential to control mosquito-borne diseases on a wide scale, and concern, for the invasiveness and potential irreversibility of a release....
