Feasible Introgression of an Anti-pathogen Transgene into an Urban Mosquito Population without Using Gene-Drive
BACKGROUND: Introgressing anti-pathogen constructs into wild vector populations could reduce disease transmission. It is generally assumed that such introgression would require linking an anti-pathogen gene with a selfish genetic element or similar technologies. Yet none of the proposed transgenic a...
