BUG: mutation nuc:C11956T cannot be displayed correctly if one choose "Show amino acid and nucleotide mutations together" #737

I do not know the exact problem behind this, so I just report the bug that I met: When I e.g. search for the variant XBB.1.9 (https://cov-spectrum.org/explore/World/AllSamples/Past2M/variants?nextcladePangoLineage=XBB.1.9&), which partly contains the mutation nuc:C11956T, I can see this mutation in the list of nucleotide mutations. However, if I choose "Show amino acid and nucleotide mutations together", the mutation nuc:C11956T disappeared.

Hi @AnonymousUserUse, thank you very much for reporting this, and sorry for the very late reply! The reason for it is that the 11956 position corresponds to ORF1a:3897 where we have the mutation ORF1a:D3897G with a very low prevalence of 0.04%. This is causing it not to appear by default but only if we change the proportion filter.

That's not very intuitive and we will try to make it better.

Thanks for the explanation. @chaoran-chen It seems that this problem occurs very frequently in large lineages. I hope that nucleotide mutations corresponding to amino acid mutations that have a prevalence outside the selected range can also be shown in "additional nucleotide mutations" in the future. Maybe this issue can be added to the to-do-list.
