The integrated data obtained for 9004 fingerprinted clones and 974 probes have placed 91.2% of the 33.58-Mb genome into contigs representing each of the 36 chromosomes. This first-generation map has already provided a suitable framework for both high-throughput DNA sequencing and functional studies of the L. major parasite.}, URL = {http://genome.cshlp.org/content/8/2/135.abstract}, eprint = {http://genome.cshlp.org/content/8/2/135.full.pdf+html}, journal = {Genome Research} }
