Haemonchus contortus

Genome Assembly & Annotation

Assembly

The H. contortus genome was sequenced by the Gasser laboratory at the University of Melbourne, as described by Schwarz et al (2013). The version of the genome represented here is that submitted directly to WormBase in 2013, which is similar to, but not exactly the same as, NCBI assembly GCA_000442195.1, containing 31 additional scaffolds.

Annotation

The gene predictions were made Cornell University, as described by Schwarz et al (2013). The version represented here is that submitted directly to WormBase in 2013.
