Split drive killer-rescue provides a novel threshold-dependent gene drive
Abstract A wide range of gene drive mechanisms have been proposed that are predicted to increase in frequency within a population even when they are deleterious to individuals carrying them. This also allows associated desirable genetic material (“cargo genes”) to increase in frequency. Gene drives...
