Genome sequence of the chimpanzee malaria parasite Plasmodium gaboni
To understand the evolution of the human malaria Plasmodium falciparum, we have sequenced and assembled the genome of its close relative P. gaboni. Using comparative genomics we have characterized major differences between the species, particularlyhighlighting those involved in host adaptation.
