Gene-drive suppression of mosquito populations in large cages as a bridge between lab and field

Gene-drive suppression of mosquito populations in large cages as a bridge between lab and field

Experimental analysis of gene drive population dynamics has mostly been limited to small cage trials. Here the authors, to fill the gap between lab based studies and field studies, use large indoor cages and see population suppression without the emergence of resistant alleles
