Population replacement refers to the process by which a wild-type population of insect pests is replaced by a population possessing modified traits or abilities. Effective population replacement necessitates a gene drive system capable of spreading desired genes within natural populations, operating under principles akin to super-Mendelian inheritance. Consequently, releasing a small number of genetically edited insects could potentially achieve population control objectives. Currently, several gene drive approaches are under exploration, including the newly adapted CRISPR-Cas genome editing system. Multiple studies are investigating methods to engineer pests that are incapable of causing crop damage or transmitting vector-borne diseases, with several notable successful examples documented. This review summarizes the recent advancements of the CRISPR-Cas system in the realm of population replacement and provides insights into research methodologies, testing protocols, and implementation strategies for gene drive techniques. The review also discusses emerging trends and prospects for establishing genetic tools in pest management. |
