Genetic engineering to control Mosquitoes
Source: TH Context: Genetic engineering is being used to upgrade mosquito control efforts due to the ongoing threat of mosquito-borne diseases. Recent advancements in genome sequencing technology have provided researchers with access to mosquito genomes, particularly Anopheles stephensi, a major malaria vector mosquito. Genetic manipulation, including gene-drive technology, is employed to control mosquito …
