Abstract
In various embodiments methods of utilizing gene drive constructs in asexual organisms such as viruses are provided. In certain embodiments the methods involve transfecting or infecting a cell with a modified DNA virus containing a gene drive construct; and infecting the cell with the target virus where the genome of said target DNA virus is modified by insertion of the gene drive construct into the genome of the target DNA virus and a population of modified target viruses (containing the gene drive construct) is produced.
