  • Self-Selecting Sterile Male Arthropods
    Publication number: 20210324409
    Abstract: The invention provides a gene expression system that imparts homozygous, sex-specific lethality in arthropods, particularly Tephritid insects, such as Ceratitis capitata. The arthropod strains produce males that are also engineered to be sterile. The sterile may be released to mate with wild female to suppress propagation of the arthropod population.
