A transgenic male-only strain of the New World screwworm for an improved control program using the sterile insect technique
BACKGROUND: The New World screwworm, Cochliomyia hominivorax, is a devastating pest of livestock endemic to subtropical and tropical regions of the Western hemisphere. The larvae of this species feed on the tissue of living animals, including man, and can cause death if untreated. Over 60 years ago,...
