How gene-drive endonucleases can be used to combat pests and disease vectors
Gene-drive endonucleases (GDEs) are genes that can spread through a population through a non-Mendelian mechanism. In a heterozygote they cause a double-strand break in the homologous chromosome opposite to where they are inserted and when the break is repaired using the homologue as a template the G...
