Exploring the potential of using male‐killing endosymbionts to induce female‐biased insect populations for enhanced biomass production

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Overview of the mindset and long‐term goals with the approach suggested in this study. We provide a first proof of concept that male‐killing endosymbionts can be used to establish female biased populations with higher production efficiency than populations with a 50/50 sex ratio. This biological tool can have marked positive impact on future commercial
