More and more mosquitoes are resistant to insecticides, and the malaria parasites are resistant to antimalarial drugs, making people urgently need new methods to combat this disease
More and more mosquitoes are resistant to insecticides, and the malaria parasites are resistant to antimalarial drugs, making people urgently need new methods to combat this disease
This study is the latest step in a series of steps using CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology to modify mosquito genes, which may reduce the ability of mosquitoes to transmit malaria

Gene drive is being tested as a new method
Researchers genetically modified the malaria-transmitting mosquito Anopheles gambiae
Correction of the CRISPR/Cas9 midgut site in Anopheles gambiae

Transmission blocking test of Plasmodium falciparum
Plasmodium falciparum transmission blocking test Plasmodium falciparum Plasmodium falciparumtransmission blocking testThis experiment provides preliminary evidence that this genetic modification method can create a successful gene drive
This experiment provides preliminary evidence that this genetic modification method can create a successful gene drive
These genetic modifications are passive and can be tested on site and undergo strict supervision procedures to ensure that they can safely and effectively block the parasites and will not cause people to worry about accidental spread in the environment
