Changes in Version 8.1

Major Changes

• New functionality for a SeqSphere+ Consortium that allows several SeqSphere+ users each with their own installation to share a minimum agreed upon amount of data (e.g., for [supra]national/regional genomic surveillance or in the framework of a funded project, etc.) while the original and complete data remain locally.

• Revised spa-typing task template for improved detection of spa-types from WGS data. Possibility to submit new spa-types with known spa-repeats from WGS data to SpaServer (new spa-repeats still need confirmation by Sanger sequencing).

• New postfixes in AMRFinderPlus task template now appending ESBL, ampC, and carbapenemase for class BETA-LACTAM in the result fields.

Minor Changes

• New function to assign tags to samples in a comparison table.
• Changed order of task templates in comparison tables that are created from multiple projects.
• Fixed that samples with a SLC ID that are moved to another project get the SLC ID either deleted (new project without SLC IDs) or newly determined (new project with SLC IDs).
• Fixed AMRFinderPlus organism setting for Campylobacter if Mash identification is not performed.
• Export profile and metadata files for GrapeTree.
• Some further small improvements and bug fixes.
