Engineered action at a distance: Blood-meal-inducible paralysis in Aedes aegypti.
BACKGROUND:Population suppression through mass-release of Aedes aegypti males carrying dominant-lethal transgenes has been demonstrated in the field. Where population dynamics show negative density-dependence, suppression can be enhanced if lethality occurs after the density-dependent (i.e. larval)...
