Abstract
The sterile insect technique (SIT) and the incompatible insect technique (IIT) are emerging and potentially revolutionary tools for controlling Aedes aegypti (L.), a prominent worldwide mosquito vector threat to humans that is notoriously difficult to reduce or eliminate in intervention areas using traditional integrated vector management (IVM) approaches. Here we provide an overview of the discovery, development, and application of SIT and IIT to Ae. aegypti control, and innovations and advances in technology, including transgenics, that could elevate these techniques to a worldwide sustainable solution to Ae. aegypti when combined with other IVM practices.
昆虫不育技术(SIT)和昆虫不相容技术(IIT)是控制埃及伊蚊(L.)的新兴且具有潜在革命性的工具,埃及伊蚊是全球范围内威胁人类的主要蚊媒,使用传统的病媒综合管理(IVM)方法很难在干预地区减少或消灭埃及伊蚊。在此,我们将概述 SIT 和 IIT 的发现、发展和在埃及伊蚊控制中的应用,以及技术的创新和进步,包括转基因技术,当这些技术与其他病媒综合管理方法相结合时,可将其提升为全球范围内埃及伊蚊的可持续解决方案。
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association (JAMCA) encourages the submission
of previously unpublished manuscripts contributing to the advancement of knowledge of
mosquitoes and other arthropod vectors. The Journal encourages submission of a wide range of
scientific studies that include all aspects of biology, ecology, systematics, and integrated pest
management. Manuscripts exceeding normal length (e. g., monographs) may be accepted for
publication as a supplement to the regular issue.
