Male mosquitoes that cannot produce offspring after mating with females.

Mosquitoes are a key vector of the disease, and one way to control infectious diseases is to control the number of mosquitoes, and one way to control mosquito populations is to create male mosquitoes that cannot produce offspring after mating with females.
an experiment off the coast of Cassowary, Queensland, Australia, showed that the method kills more than 80 percent of the mosquitoes that transmit the disease.
the results are seen as a major victory against disease-borne mosquitoes.
from November 2017 to June this year, Australia released millions of male Aedes aegypti mosquitoes that have been processed using a technique called Sterile Insect Technology, and their eggs that do not hatch after mating with females.
the technology was born in the 1950s, the challenge for researchers is to produce enough sterile male mosquitoes.
to address this challenge, As part of the Debug project, Verily, a subsidiary of Alphabet, has developed mosquito breeding, gender screening and release technology.
