Locations of hospitals in peninsular Malaysia from which clinical Plasmodium knowlesi infections were sampled and sequenced in the states of Perak (Taiping and Sungai Siput), Kelantan (Gua Musang), and Pahang (Kuala Lipis and Temerloh). Of 56 infection samples processed through leukocyte depletion and subsequent DNA extraction, 32 had sufficient quantity and purity of P. knowlesi DNA for Illumina sequencing (https://www.illumina.com), of which 28 yielded high coverage genomewide sequence for pop
