Transgenic Anopheles gambiae Expressing an Antimalarial Peptide Suffer No Significant Fitness Cost
Mosquito-borne diseases present some of the greatest health challenges faced by the world today. In many cases, existing control measures are compromised by insecticide resistance, pathogen tolerance to drugs and the lack of effective vaccines. In light of these difficulties, new genetic tools for d...
