Impact of genetic manipulation on the fitness of Anopheles stephensi mosquitoes.
Genetic modification of mosquitoes offers exciting possibilities for controlling malaria, but success will depend on how transformation affects the fitness of modified insects. The expression of an exogenous gene, the mutations caused by its insertion, and inbreeding while transformed lines are esta...
