Genetic engineering of insects to inhibit insect pest reproduction

Genetic engineering of insects to inhibit insect pest reproductionThis chapter reviews key few methods of genetic biocontrol focusing on those systems that have been developed for crop insect pests. These include sterile release systems where e. g. sterilized males produce sperm which carries dominant lethal mutations that result in their offspring failing to develop or prevents functional sperm from being produced. We contrast these systems with fertile release systems which involve releasing insects that are
