Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial genomes of apicomplexan parasites exhibit remarkable structural diversity, ranging from highly reduced linear molecules to circular-mapping concatemers, yet their full characterization has been hindered by technical limitations in resolving complex infections. This study establishes a novel integrated workflow combining one-step PCR amplification with Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) to sequence...
