Datasets for: Transforming Insect Population Control with Precision Guided Sterile Males.

Interventions Contrast

These datasets hold the results of the experiments to perform the comparisons between the different mosquito-control interventions.

Note: each scenario was repeated 2000 times

Parameters Sweeps

Sensitivity analysis on important parameters for the pgSIT drive.

Note: each scenario was repeated 20 times

Lifespan Reduction

Sweeping the lifespan reduction effects (mortality) on the genetically modified individuals.

• LifespanReduction01.7z: female eggs allowed at a .5 ratio, and they die on pupation (100:1)
• LifespanReduction02.7z: female eggs allowed at a .5 ratio, and they die on pupation (200:1)

Mating Efficacy

Sweeping the mating efficacy on the genetically modified individuals.

• MatingEfficacy01.7z: female eggs allowed at a .5 ratio, and they die on pupation (100:1)
• MatingEfficacy02.7z: female eggs allowed at a .5 ratio, and they die on pupation (200:1)

LifespanAndMatingFactorial

Factorial sweep of both effects.

• Factorial01.7z: female eggs allowed at a .5 ratio, and they die on pupation (100:1)
• Factorial02.7z: female eggs allowed at a .5 ratio, and they die on pupation (200:1)
