Table 1.

The PfSPZ strains differ from the 3D7 in genome size and sequence. Characteristics of the Pacio assembly for each strain (first four columns), with the Pf 3D7 reference genome shown for comparison (italics). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and indels in each PfSPZ assembly as compared to 3D7, both genome-wide (All) or restricted to the core genome

¹Contigs: number of pieces of continuous sequence in the final assembly

²Cumulative length: total length of the contigs

³N50: length of the contig which, along with all contigs larger than itself, contain 50% of the assembly (larger numbers indicate a more complete assembly)

⁴Core genome as defined in [32]
