Abstract: |
Sterility is an effective means applied to pest control. Sterile insect techniques (SIT), as an Area-Wide Integrated Pest Management (AW-IPM) measure, can block the invasion of alien species and the damage of agricultural pests to the greatest extent, while the rapid development of biomolecule technology has also contributed to many innovative achievements in SIT research. In this paper, various novel sterility techniques and ideas are described, and their advantages and limitations are summarized and evaluated, providing references for the rational use of different techniques. With SIT as an introduction, the advances in ideas of studies on applications of various molecular genetic control mechanism are summarized, and unique thoughts are made on the current sterile techniques, and corresponding suggestions are made for their large-scale practical applications. The use of sterile insects should be efficient and concise, and a large number of strains with low irradiation tolerance genes should be released in the wild so that the trait can be spread in the wild population. The insect population can be controlled by the use of ultra-low doses of irradiation. |
