This data release includes copy number variant (CNV) calls, genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) calls, haplotypes as well as sample metadata and sequence read alignments from whole-genome sequencing of 2,784 wild-caught mosquitoes collected from 19 countries in sub-Saharan Africa, and 297 mosquitoes comprising parents and progeny of 15 lab crosses. Three mosquito species are represented: Anopheles gambiae, Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles arabiensis. This data was generated by the Ag1000G project which is part of the MalariaGEN vector observatory but can also be analysed together with data from the Anopheles gambiae genomic surveillance project.

Ag3.0 Terms of Use

The Data Producers (the Consortium and its Contributing Investigators) will release the Project data prior to publication, in the expectation that they will be valuable for many researchers. In keeping with Fort Lauderdale principles, Data Users may use the data for their own studies, but are expected to allow the Consortium and its Contributing Investigators to make the first presentations and to publish the first papers with global analyses of the data. Researchers who have questions about whether they may make presentations or submit papers using Project data, or whether to include the Anopheles gambiae 1000 Genomes Consortium as an author, may contact Martin Donnelly (M.J.Donnelly@liverpool.ac.uk). Please see Ag1000G Terms of Use for the full terms.
