Synthetic biology approaches to generate temperature‐sensitive alleles for the Sterile Insect Technique

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is an environmentally friendly, sustainable pest control approach, which uses large‐scale releases of sterile insects to suppress or eradicate target populations through infertile matings. The efficiency of SIT is enhanced by male‐only releases requiring genetic sexing strains (GSSs) that are classically ...

CRISPR/Cas9‐based white pupae mutant lines in Bactrocera spp. for sterile insect technique applications

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Bactrocera fruit flies are significant horticultural pests that cause major economic losses. A “neoclassical approach” incorporating genome editing via CRISPR/Cas9 to develop genetic sexing strains (GSS) could render the sterile insect technique (SIT) against these pests more efficient and cost‐effective.

IAEA Coordinated Research Project on “A generic approach for the development of genetic sexing strains for Sterile Insect Technique applications”— an overview

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The sterile insect technique (SIT) plays an important role in environmentally sustainable pest management. Its effectiveness hinges on specialized genetic tools called genetic sexing strains (GSSs), which enable the production and release of sterile male insects while excluding females.

Economic activity during extreme events

Canadian Journal of Economics/Revue canadienne d'économique, EarlyView.
Abstract Although extreme weather events, natural disasters or infrastructure failures potentially have important economic effects, quantifying these effects over small areas and fine time intervals has been difficult because of the fairly coarse scales available in most data sources. This paper surveys the use of relatively new and finely grained data

Immigrants’ Changing Religiosity: The Case of Spain

Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article analyzes changes in religiosity of the migrant–origin population in Spain. Using data from the Spanish General Social Survey (ESGE) from four different years between 2013 and 2023, we compare people with migrant background with respect to the native‐born population in terms of religious affiliation (vs.

Metroeconomica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the convergence of Luigi Pasinetti's and Adolph Lowe's political economy, linking capital theory, institutions, and normative methodology. Pasinetti's two‐stage approach and Lowe's instrumental method share a common emphasis on the structural requirements and institutional arrangements for attaining and maintaining full ...
