Gene drive technology, in which fast‐spreading engineered drive alleles are introduced into
wild populations, represents a promising new tool in the fight against vector‐borne diseases …

A Cas9/guide RNA-based gene drive strain, AgNosCd-1, was developed to deliver
antiparasite effector molecules to the malaria vector mosquito, Anopheles gambiae. The …

Controlling the principal African malaria vector, the mosquito Anopheles gambiae, is
considered essential to curtail malaria transmission. However, existing vector control …

Mosquitoes are vectors for a number of infectious diseases. Only females feed on blood to
provision for their embryos and, in doing so, transmit pathogens to the associated vertebrate …

Although of high priority for the development of genetic tools to control malaria-transmitting
mosquitoes, only a few germline-specific regulatory regions have been characterised to date …

Advances in molecular and synthetic biology are enabling the engineering of gene drives in
insects for disease vector/pest control. Engineered gene drives (that bias their own …

Aedes aegypti is a vector of dengue, chikungunya, and Zika viruses. Current vector control
strategies such as community engagement, source reduction, and insecticides have not …

The probability D that a given clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats
(CRISPR)‐based gene drive element contaminates another, nontarget species can be …

Controlling the principal African malaria vector, the mosquito Anopheles gambiae, is
considered essential to curtail malaria transmission. However existing vector control …

In vertebrates, enzymes responsible for DNA methylation, one of the epigenetic
mechanisms, are encoded by genes falling into the cytosine methyltransferases genes …
