Genetic Variation and Potential for Resistance Development to the tTA Overexpression Lethal System in Insects
G3 Genes|Genomes|Genetics, 10(4), 1271–1281.
TL;DR:
The data suggest that standing genetic variation in an insect population could provide multiple mechanisms for resistance to the tTA overexpression system, and specifically genes associated with RNA processing and rRNA maturation were significantly upregulated in low lethal lines.

Development and testing of a novel killer–rescue self-limiting gene drive system in <i>Drosophila melanogaster
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 287(1925), 20192994.
TL;DR:
It is demonstrated that with a single 2:1 engineered to wildtype release, more than 98% of the population carry R after eight generations, and this simple gene drive system could be readily adapted to other species such as mosquito disease vectors for driving anti-viral or anti-parasite genes.

Effects of genetic selection for early puberty on the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis in gilts
Harlow, K. L., Renwick, A., Shuping, S., Sommer, J., Knauer, M., & Nestor, C. (2020, November). JOURNAL OF ANIMAL SCIENCE, Vol. 98, pp. 212–212.
author keywords: puberty; gilt; neuroendocrine
TL;DR:
It is concluded that gilts genetically selected for early puberty do so via changes within the hypothalamus that increase gonadotropin secretion and, in turn, stimulate ovarian growth to ultimately advance the timing of puberty onset.

TL;DR:
It is shown that effective male-only strains can be made by combining driver/effector lines that have moderate transgene expression/activity, and such a “moderate strategy” could be considered for the TESS development in other pest species.
