Показать описание
This animation explains how an emerging technology called "gene drives" may be used to potentially spread particular genomic alterations through targeted wild populations over many generations. It uses mosquitoes as an example of a target species — and illustrates how the versatile genome editing tool called CRISPR makes it possible.
