The use of driving endonuclease genes to suppress mosquito vectors of malaria in temporally variable environments
<strong>Background</strong> The use of gene drive systems to manipulate populations of malaria vectors is currently being investigated as a method of malaria control. One potential system uses driving endonuclease genes (DEGs) to spread genes that impose a genetic load. Previously, model...
