Optimization of whole-genome sequencing of Plasmodium falciparum from low-density dried blood spot samples

BACKGROUND: Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) is becoming increasingly useful to study the biology, epidemiology, and ecology of malaria parasites. Despite ease of sampling, DNA extracted from dried blood spots (DBS) has a high ratio of human DNA compared to parasite DNA, which poses a challenge for dow...
