Genetic control of Invasive carpMAISRC, Minnesota Aquatic Invasive Species Research Center, 2019.![]() This project focuses on a novel method of biocontrol for common carp which will complement existing technologies by introducing a synthetic species-like barrier to reproduction. Researchers will use programmable transcription activators to drive lethal embryonic overexpression of ...

Production of YY Supermale and XY Physiological Female Common Carp for Potential Eradication of this Invasive SpeciesM. Y. Jiang, X. X. Wu, K. X. Chen, H. R. Luo, W. Yu, S. T. Jia, Y. M. Li, Y. F. Wang, P. H. Yang, Z. Y. Zhu and W. Hu, Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, 49:315-327. 2018.![]() The common carp, Cyprinus carpio, is the third most cultivated freshwater species worldwide, but is also considered an invasive species. The Trojan Y chromosome strategy is one of the most promising methods to eradicate this invasive species. However, obtaining fertile YY ...

Genetic control of invasive fish: technological options and its role in integrated pest managementR. E. Thresher, K. Hayes, N. J. Bax, J. Teem, T. J. Benfey and F. Gould, Biological Invasions, 16:1201-1216. 2013.![]() Genetic options for the control of invasive fishes were recently reviewed and synthesized at a 2010 international symposium, held in Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN, USA. The only option currently available "off-the-shelf'' is triploidy, which can be used to produce sterile males for a ...
