>GM mosquitoes are mass-produced in a laboratory to carry two types of genes:
>A self-limiting gene that prevents female mosquito offspring from surviving to adulthood.
>A fluorescent marker gene that glows under a special red light. This allows researchers to identify GM mosquitoes in the wild.
>GM mosquitoes produced in a lab lay eggs, which carry the self-limiting and fluorescent marker genes.
>Mosquito control professionals release GM mosquito eggs into an area.
>When the eggs hatch, they develop into adult mosquitoes. These mosquitoes mate with wild females.
>The genes are passed on to offspring.
>The expected result of using GM mosquitoes is that the numbers of Ae. aegypti mosquitoes in an area decreases.
