Insect Gene Editing

Insect gene editing is the key direction and important field of gene editing research in recent years. There are many kinds of insects, and there are many insects that are beneficial to the ecological environment, and promote the growth and development of plants and the natural ecological cycle. But also, there are insects that destroy the competitive relationship between species and affect the growth and development of food crops. The traditional method for controlling insect populations is to use artificial reproduction or insecticide elimination, but this method is time-consuming and laborious, and its effect gradually loses as the insects reproduce. Therefore, how to find a suitable method to solve such problems is a key issue that researchers continue to research and develop.

Nowadays, after many years of development, genome editing technology has become increasingly mature. It has shown unique advantages in gene function research, gene therapy, construction of model animals, and the transformation of new breeds. In the field of insects, in recent years, gene editing technology has mainly focused on the transgenic control of harmful insects and the improvement of economic insects, such as Drosophila, silkworm and other model organisms.
