In recent years synthetic biology has emerged as a suite of techniques and technologies that enable humans to read, interpret, modify, design and manufacture DNA in order to rapidly influence the… Expand
Factors affecting the implementation of exclusion netting to control Drosophila suzukii on primocane raspberry
- D. Stockton, Stephen P. Hesler, +6 authors G. Loeb
- Biology
- 1 September 2020
Abstract Sustainable management of invasive arthropod pests requires insecticide-alternative, integrated strategies, such as protected culture. During 2016–2017, we studied the efficacy of exclusion… Expand

- 3 January 2018
Invasive, polyphagous crop pests subsist on a number of crop and non-crop resources. While knowing the full range of host species is important, a seasonal investigation into the use of non-crop… Expand
Anticipating complexity in the deployment of gene drive insects in agriculture
- J. Baltzegar, J. Barnes, +4 authors Jayce Sudweeks
- Business
- 24 January 2018
ABSTRACTInsects cause substantial losses to agricultural crops each year and require intensive management approaches. Genetic pest management has emerged as a viable, non-chemical alternative for… Expand
Does the U.S. public support using gene drives in agriculture? And what do they want to know?
- M. S. Jones, J. Delborne, Johanna E Elsensohn, P. Mitchell, Z. Brown
- Business, Medicine
- Science Advances
- 1 September 2019
With gene drives for agricultural pest control on the horizon, a survey suggests the public is receptive but concerned about risk. Gene drive development is progressing more rapidly than our… Expand
CRISPR‐based gene drive in agriculture will face technical and governance challenges
