Genomically informed gene drive modelling
© 2022 Benjamin James CammCRISPR/Cas gene drives are a focus of genetic biocontrol for pest species. They have the potential to radically affect pest species, by making them more manageable or by eradicating them.

Gene drive systems: do they have a place in agricultural weed management? [PDF]
There is a pressing need for novel control techniques in agricultural weed management. Direct genetic control of agricultural pests encompasses a range of techniques to introduce and spread novel, fitness-reducing genetic modifications through pest ...

Molecular safeguarding of CRISPR gene drive experiments
CRISPR-based homing gene drives have sparked both enthusiasm and deep concerns due to their potential for genetically altering entire species. This raises the question about our ability to prevent the unintended spread of such drives from the laboratory ...

Gene drive strategies of pest control in agricultural systems: Challenges and opportunities
Recent advances in gene‐editing technologies have opened new avenues for genetic pest control strategies, in particular around the use of gene drives to suppress or modify pest populations. Significant uncertainty, however, surrounds the applicability of
