Prospects for the Future Development and Application of the Sterile Insect Technique
Science-based modern agriculture and international trade in agricultural commodities have achieved that, even though the world population has doubled in the last 40 years, the absolute number of people in poverty and hunger has been falling steadily. The

Role of Population Genetics in the Sterile Insect Technique [PDF]
The detection and analysis of genetic variation in natural and laboratory populations are reviewed. The application of population genetic methods and theory can help to plan and evaluate the implementation of area-wide integrated pest management (AW-IPM)

Global Stabilization of a Sterile Insect Technique Model by feedback Laws [PDF]
This work concerns feedback global stabilization of the sterile insect technique dynamics. The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is presently one of the most ecological methods for controlling insect pests responsible for crop destruction and disease ...

Implementing the sterile insect technique with
AbstractWe review RNA interference (RNAi) of insect pests and its potential for implementing sterile insect technique (SIT)‐related control. The molecular mechanisms that support RNAi in pest species are reviewed in detail, drawing on literature from a range of species including Drosophila melanogaster Meigen and Homo sapiens L.

Area-Wide Integrated Pest Management and the Sterile Insect Technique
Area-wide integrated pest management (AW-IPM) focuses on the preventive management of pest populations throughout the ecosystem. It seeks to treat all habitats of the pest population so that none produces migrants to re-establish significant infestations

Impact of Fruit Fly Control Programmes Using the Sterile Insect Technique
Measuring the impact of area-wide integrated pest management (AW-IPM) programmes, that use the sterile insect technique (SIT) to control fruit fly pests of economic significance, is complex.
