Abstract
- ANO IPCL1 strain considered for use in SIT programmes against Anopheles arabiensis.
- The high natural sterility of ANO ICPL1 has advantages and disadvantages.
- Untreated ANO IPCL1 males are equally competitive compared to wild-type strain.
- Retention of dieldrin residues by treated males is highly controversial.
- Use of dieldrin and bioaccumulation of residues makes strain unsuitable for AW-IVM.
