Genome engineering and gene drive in the mosquito aedes aegypti

Genome engineering and gene drive in the mosquito aedes aegypti

<p>Genetic control strategies are a novel method for reducing populations of pest insects such as the yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti, a major vector of several important arboviral diseases. This thesis describes efforts to develop new tools to engineer the Ae. aegypti genome and to better...
