CONT

Il s'agit en effet de violer les fameuses lois de Mendel pour répandre un caractère donné dans l'ensemble d'une population. Lors de la reproduction sexuée, un caractère porté sur un chromosome d'un des deux parents n'a qu'une chance sur deux d'être transmis à la génération suivante. Le forçage génétique ­consiste à dépasser ce seuil et transmettre ce caractère à 100 % de la descendance.

OBS

Pour traduire l'expression anglaise gene drive, Eric Marois, chercheur coresponsable du groupe Anopheles (Inserm/CNRS) à l'université de Strasbourg, a opté pour «forçage génétique».
