Abstract

We report the high-quality draft assemblies and gene annotations for 13 species and/or strains of the protozoan parasite genera Leishmania, Endotrypanum, and Crithidia, which span the phylogenetic diversity of the subfamily Leishmaniinae within the kinetoplastid order of the phylum Euglenazoa. These resources will support studies on the origins of parasitism.
