A streamlined proof of concept CRISPR-based environmental biosurveillance platform for the detection of closely related invasive rats

The paper presents a CRISPR-based biosurveillance platform for detecting invasive rats, achieving species-specific discrimination and high sensitivity.

The LAST mile: Evaluating genetic biocontrol as a supplemental tool for eradicating invasive rodents on islands

This study evaluates genetic biocontrol methods as supplements to toxicant-based eradication of invasive rodents on islands, finding Gravid Lethal to be effective under certain strategies.

Leveraging a natural murine meiotic drive to suppress invasive populations

This paper proposes a gene drive strategy called tCRISPR to suppress invasive mouse populations by leveraging the t haplotype's biased transmission and inactivating mutations in a female fertility gene.
