Plasmodium falciparum enrichment tests
Illumina sequencing of Plasmodium falciparum to test methods for DNA enrichment. 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/
Field isolates of malaria are often only present at low concentration in DNA samples with high levels of host contamination. Illumina sequencing of Plasmodium falciparum is being used to test methods for DNA enrichment which can then be applied to other malaria isolates.
