Towards a high-resolution map of the Plasmodium falciparum genome.
Until recently very little was known about the genome of Plasmodium falciparum. The situation has changed considerably with the advent of pulsed field gradient electrophoresis and yeast artificial chromosome technologies. It should now be possible to generate a high-resolution map within a few years. Here, Tony Triglia, Thomas Wellems and David Kemp review current knowledge.
