Helminth genomes - data download
This page provides access to genomes sequenced at the Wellcome Sanger Institute.
We will make all of our Illumina/Solexa and 454 sequence reads available through the links below as they are made available via the European Nucleotide Archive. Assembled genome data are made available via the ftp links for individual organisms on a regular basis. The list below may include complete, ongoing and forthcoming sequencing projects.
- Echinococcus granulosus
- Echinococcus multilocularis
- Globodera pallida
- Haemonchus contortus
- Hymenolepis microstoma
- Onchocerca volvulus
- Schistosoma mansoni
- Strongyloides ratti
- Trichuris muris
Collaborative Projects:
50 Helminth genomes initiative:
The draft genomes of many nematodes, cestodes and trematodes are available.
Sequence data for each project is accessible for download from the FTP site and searching using 50HGI BLAST. These are available from the Sanger Institute as part of a pre-publication release. For information on the proper use of pre-publication data shared by the Wellcome Sanger Institute (including details of any publication moratoria), please see the data sharing policy.
