An effective method to purify Plasmodium falciparum DNA directly from clinical blood samples for whole genome high-throughput sequencing

Highly parallel sequencing technologies permit cost-effective whole genome sequencing of hundreds of Plasmodium parasites. The ability to sequence clinical Plasmodium samples, extracted directly from patient blood without a culture step, presents a unique opportunity to sample the diversity of "...
