Log-odds score substitution matrix of codons between Plasmodium falciparum (x-axis) and Plasmodium knowlesi (y-axis). P. falciparum is a low-GC genome and P. kowlesi is a mid-GC genome.

The genomes of two Plasmodium species, falciparum and knowlesi are structurally very similar to one another:

Organism Chromosome count Genome Length CDS count Genome GC content CDS GC content CDS Wobble position content non-coding GC content Plasmodium falicparum 14 22,860,235 bp 5267 19.88% 23.72% 17.30% 14.58% Plasmodium knowlesi 14 23,462,187 bp 5102 38.94% 40.23% 45.56% 35.12%
