摘要:
The sterile insect technique (SIT), in which sterile mosquitoes are released to reduce
or eradicate he wild mosquito population, is an effective weapon to prevent the
transmission of mosquito-borne diseases. To study the impact of SIT on the disease
transmissions, we formulate continuous- or discrete-time mathematical models with
homogeneous or stage-structured wild and sterile mosquitoes populations to study
their interactive dynamics. Different releasing strategies are incorporated into the
various models and their impacts on the interactive dynamics are investigated and compared.
