Daisy-chain gene drives: The role of low cut-rate, resistance mutations, and maternal deposition.

The introgression of genetic traits through gene drive may serve as a powerful and widely applicable method of biological control. However, for many applications, a self-perpetuating gene drive that can spread beyond the specific target population may be undesirable and preclude use. Daisy-chain gen...
