WGS of Plasmodium falciparum IT
A project to shotgun sequence the genome of the IT parasite line is underway as a component of the BioMalPar Consortium(European Union 6th Framework Program, Contract number LSHP-LT-2004-503578). This initiative is in collaboration with Chris Newbold of the Molecular Parasitology Group, Institute of Molecular Medicine, Oxford. Illumina sequencing will be used to aid assembly and to improve base accuracy. This data is part of a pre-publication release. For information on the proper use of pre-publication data shared by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (including details of any publication moratoria), please see http://www.sanger.ac.uk/datasharing/
