For SARS-CoV-2 genomic analysis, what is the difference in utility of a Pangolin Lineage versus a NextClade Clade (e.g. lineage B.1.617.2 vs clade 21A)?

• pangolin

  3 413 5.7 Python

  Software package for assigning SARS-CoV-2 genome sequences to global lineages. (by cov-lineages)

  

Lineage and clade assignments--especially by Pangolin and Nextclade, respectively--seem to be the most popular way to characterize SARS-CoV-2 genomes and so I'm wondering how these two concepts are applied differently to inform our understanding of the pandemic.

• nextclade

  2 199 9.8 TypeScript

  Viral genome alignment, mutation calling, clade assignment, quality checks and phylogenetic placement
