The SARS-CoV-2 Illumina GeNome Assembly Line (SIGNAL) has been updated to version 1.6.2, with an important hotfix to address software version incompatibility for rules using the snp_mapping environment, a minor tweak to address x-axis label clipping in generated coverage plots, improved linking between iVar and Freebayes consensus and variant output when using SIGNAL and ncov_tools, and minor tweaks to handle missing or erroneous output mid-analysis due to errors.
