The malaria parasite, specifically Plasmodium falciparum, has a haploid genome consisting of 14 chromosomes. These chromosomes vary in size and contain the genetic material necessary for the parasite's life cycle and pathogenicity. Other species of Plasmodium may have different chromosome counts, but P. falciparum's 14 chromosomes are the most commonly referenced.
