- Species Sensitivity to Toxic Substances: Evolution, Ecology and Applications (2020, background): “The concept of a gene drive for sterility have been advanced for the eradication of malarial mosquito populations (Gantz et al., 2015; Simoni et al., 2020).”
- The potential for the use of gene drives for pest control in New Zealand: a perspective (2018, methodology): “Rather than the approach used in mosquitos of trying to spread a gene drive that damages fecundity or fitness in a population (Gantz et al. 2015; Hammond et al. 2015), a gene drive system will fail if queens that are made defective do not spread their genetics.”
- Options for the biological and physical control of Vespa velutina nigrithorax (Hym.: Vespidae) in Europe: A review (2018, background): “The use of DNA technology in insects control has developed considerably in recent years, not only for the control of pests but also for the control of the Anopheles mosquito (Gantz et al., 2015; Probal & Sajal, 2014).”
- Gene Drives on the Horizon: Advancing Science, Navigating Uncertainty, and Aligning Research with Public Values (2016, background): “For example, although empirical evidence indicates suggest that conversion rates for gene drives are high for specific wild-type alleles in the laboratory (Gantz and Bier, 2015; Gantz et al., 2015; Hammond et al., 2016), there are, as of yet, no estimates of gene drive conversion rates in larger and”
