 Transgenic mosquitoes are less fertile than their counterparts in nature
Postgraduate researcher Nicola Irvin, under Hoddle's supervision and in collaboration with Professor Peter Atkinson, was able to quantify the fitness of three different transgenic strains of Aedes aeypti, the mosquito vector of yellow fever and dengue.
Atkinson, the professor who leads a major research program to genetically modify mosquitoes to combat mosquito-borne disease, was not surprised that there was a fitness cost associated with transgenesis, but was surprised with the magnitude of it.
Atkinson uses a jelly fish "marker gene" that glows under ultraviolet light so he can quickly identify which mosquitoes have successfully incorporated the new genes into their DNA.

 Johnny English (2003)
Starring Rowan Atkinson as the world's most inept secret agent, the movie's scattershot approach to comedy recalls the work of the Zucker Brothers and Jim Abrahams in Airplane (1980)—keep the gags coming fast and furious and one or two of them is bound to hit.
The latter, in which Atkinson plays a socially awkward and spectacularly clumsy middle-aged working stiff, became the 1997 feature film Bean, co-starring, of all people, Burt Reynolds.
Atkinson has also worked repeatedly with screenwriter Richard Curtis, who has given him two of his best screen roles in The Tall Guy (1989) and Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994).
