Ascaris suum

Genome Assembly & Annotation

Assembly

The A. suum genome has been sequenced by the Davis laboratory at the University of Colorado as described by Wang et al. (2017) . The version presented here is an assembly update, superseding one described in Wang et al. (2012)

Annotation

The gene predictions were made by the Davis laboratory at the University of Colorado based on the output of TransDecoder . A correction was submitted by authors in 2018 for the release 11 of WormBase ParaSite.
