Large-cage assessment of a transgenic sex-ratio distortion strain on populations of an African malaria vector
BACKGROUND: Novel transgenic mosquito control methods require progressively more realistic evaluation. The goal of this study was to determine the effect of a transgene that causes a male-bias sex ratio on Anopheles gambiae target populations in large insectary cages. METHODS: Life history character...
