P.falciparum genome assemblies from the GAMCC study

This data accompanies the paper: Forster AJ et al, "Paralogous mutations in the Plasmodium falciparum surface anion channel associate with reduced protection due to sickle haemoglobin", to appear shortly. A preprint is available on medRxiv. Enclosed are genome assemblies of P.falciparum parasites from infections of Gambian children from the GAMCC study, sequenced as part of a trial of fragmentation processes at the Centre for Human Genetics, University of Oxford. The two samples are `GAM958463` and `GAM249017`; both were assembled from PacBio reads generated on the SequelIIe platform.
