Ecological Modeling in Risk Assessment of Gene DrivesHector Quemada and David O'Brochta, , 2021.
Unlike non-gene drive organisms, which can be limited in time and space and therefore provide data in small scale tests that can be relevant to large scale releases, the potential for large-scale spread from a limited release, even in well-isolated trials, means that reliance on ... |
