All SARS-CoV-2 datasets

New dataset version (tag 2022-10-27T12:00:00Z)

  • Phase 1 of migration of clade labels started: We will migrate clade labels from being a composite of Nextstrain clade, WHO name and legacy names (e.g. 20J (Gamma, V3)) to a set of independent clade labels.
    Phase 1 does not make braking changes. clade remains composite as in the past. However, 3 new clade columns are introduced (in the TSV/CSV only so far): clade_nextstrain (e.g. 20J) and clade_who (e.g. Gamma) and clade_legacy (e.g. 20J (Gamma, V3).
    If you don't want to change your code, you can future proof it by starting to use clade_legacy instead of clade, which is identical at the moment, but in the mid-term (earliest a month) clade may change. However, clade_legacy will remain part of the dataset for much longer.
    If you want to start using new split clades, you can start using clade_nextstrain and clade_who from now on.
    Phase 2 which will happen at the earliest in a month (2022-12-01) will involve changing clade from being composite and identical with clade_legacy to being identical with clade_nextstrain.
    Phase 3 which will happen at the earliest in 6 months (2023-04-01) may involve dropping clade_legacy and clade_nextstrain.

  • New clade 22F (Omicron) (XBB) added, see nextstrain/ncov#1020 for details, e.g. on the reasons for elevation

  • virus_properties.json has been updated with mutations characteristic of clades 22E (BQ.1) and 22F (XBB) to enable detection of contamination/recombination involving these clades

  • qc.json has been updated with common frameshifts and stop codons that appear in hundreds of sequences and plausibly occur in viable virus

All SARS-CoV-2 datasets

New dataset version (tag 2022-10-19T12:00:00Z)

  • New clade 22E (Omicron) (BQ.1*) added, see nextstrain/ncov#1012 for details

  • The SARS-CoV-2 trees are now purely based on Pango consensus sequences, and no longer contain any actual sequences. This makes builds more stable and helps mitigate issues with sequence artefacts. For the Omicron part of the tree, no actual sequences were ever included, so this change only affects the pre-Omicron part of the reference tree.

  • This release contains the first recombinant sublineages. These work in the same way as the other sublineages.

  • Data update: New Pango lineages, with designation date between 2022-09-25 and 2022-10-19 are now included, unfold below to see all the lineages:

New dataset version (tag 2022-09-27T12:00:00Z)

All SARS-CoV-2 datasets

  • Data update: New Pango lineages are included, see cov-lineages/pango-designation@efabcb6...cfe736 for new desigantions that are included
  • Identical sequences have been removed from B.1* lineages to reduce size of that part of the tree from ~1.6k to ~800.
BA.2 dataset (experimental)

Monkeypox datasets

hMPXV B.1 dataset
  • Mutations to a genotype found in MPXV-UK_P2 or MPXV-M5312_HM12_Rivers are now "labelled" as rev (reversion to reference). This should help identify wrong calls to reference when using the B.1 dataset. Until now, these artefacts were only visible as reversions when using the hMPXV or all-clades datasets.
MPXV (All clades)
  • Frame shifts and stop codons that are encountered in a majority of sequences from clades IIa or I are now annotated as "known" mutations, which means that they do not influence the quality score. This should help increase the signal to noise ratio when uploading sequences from either of the clades.

Experimental BA.2 dataset (sars-cov-2-21L)

(Use this dataset via web as it is not guaranteed to be continued as the other datasets)

  • Unaliased column: To help sort Nextclade web results by Pango lineage in a way that respects the meaning of aliases, there is now an unaliased column included, that writes out full lineage names as if there were no alias, e.g. BA.5.2 becomes B.1.1.529.5.2 and so forth. This has the additional advantage that you can learn what new aliases stand for.

New dataset version (tag 2022-08-26T12:00:00Z)

All Monkeypox datasets

New lineages B.1.6-B.1.8 have been added, see this PR for details: https://github.com/mpxv-lineages/lineage-designation/pull/13/files.
Lineages are now colored using color ordering, making it easier to spot lineages that are closely related on the Auspice tree.

Monkeypox datasets

New dataset version (tag 2022-08-19T12:00:00Z)

All monkeypox datasets

Clade names now follow the convention agreed during WHO consultation:

  • Clade 1 -> Clade I
  • Clade 2 -> Clade IIa
  • Clade 3 -> Clade IIb

The common ancestor of clade IIa and clade IIb is called clade II.

The clade/lineage hierarchy now has a middle level called outbreak. For now there is just one outbreak called hMPXV-1 but in the future other clusters that may be worth naming may get an outbreak name - even if they don't get lineages of their own.

This middle level is output into Nextclade web and TSV/CSV files in the same way as lineages. The field is called outbreak. If a sequence does not belong to an outbreak, the field will be empty.

Sequences released by Genbank up to 2022-08-18 are included in the new dataset.

MPXV (All clades)

The reconstructed ancestor is now assigned clade outgroup - until now the clade field was empty.

The reference.fasta ID has been renamed to reconstructed_ancestral_mpox_in_NC_063383_coordinates as requested in issue #35. This should not impact most users - the change only affects the name of the reference sequence as output to the alignment if you use Nextclade-CLI and include the --include-reference flag.

hMPXV-1 B.1 dataset

The reference.fasta ID has been renamed to MPXV_USA_2022_MA001_in_NC_063383_coordinates, see above for a description of the impact (for most people none).
