Answer:

Oxitec developed a genetically modified version of the yellow fever mosquito to help control the transmission of mosquito-borne diseases.

Oxitec created genetically-altered males of the species that produce the protein called tTA, which negatively affects cell development.

Explanation:

Oxitec created a male mosquito with a special gene that prevents female offspring from surviving to adulthood. The new males grow up, mate with more females and over time the number of Aedes Aegypti declines.
