A new powerful method for site-specific transgene stabilization based on chromosomal double-strand break repair.
Transgenic insects are a promising tool in sterile insect techniques and population replacement strategies. Such transgenic insects can be created using nonautonomous transposons, which cannot be transferred without a transposase source. In biocontrol procedures where large numbers of insects are re...
