As part of the PF3K (https://www.malariagen.net/projects/parasite/pf3k) consortium we generated 15 high quality reference genomes of Plasmodium falciparum using the Pacific Bioscience technology. This includes 5 know labstrains and 10 clinical isolates. Many of the assemblies have chromosomes with telomere to telomere heptamers. Here the raw genome assemblies are deposited. These data are unpublished, but can be used under the Fort Lauderdale's data sharing principles.
