Sterile Insect Technique (SIT)

Birth Control Method:

  • Mass rearing
  • Sex separation
  • Sterilization (irradiation)
  • Packing, transport, release
  • Sterile matings

= no offspring

  • 1. MALE STERILISATION
  • 2. RELEASE

Irradiation

  • 3. POPULATION SUPPRESSION

How to implement Transgenic mosquitoes in Integrate Control Programs?

  • Egg distribution is easy
  • Hatch centers – no larvae sorter
  • no tetracycline needs
  • after release no offspring

Improving transgenic lines Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus

  • Producing GSS (Genetic Sexing Strain)
  • Producing Sterile male strain (no Larvae)
  • Use of tetracycline only in colonies
