The creation and selection of mutations resistant to a gene drive over multiple generations in the malaria mosquito

Gene drives have enormous potential for the control of insect populations of medical and agricultural relevance. By preferentially biasing their own inheritance, gene drives can rapidly introduce genetic traits even if these confer a negative fitness effect on the population. We have recently develo...
