Genetic control of invasive plants species using selfish genetic elementsK. A. Hodgins, L. Rieseberg and S. P. Otto, Evolutionary Applications, 2:555-569. 2009.![]() Invasive plants cause substantial environmental damage and economic loss. Here, we explore the possibility that a selfish genetic element found in plants called cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) could be exploited for weed control. We developed an analytical model and a spatial ... Keywords: cytoplasmic male-sterility, gene drive natural, Genetic control, incompatibility, invasive species, selfish elements, spatial structure |
