+## v0.6.0 - [20-Dec-2024]
+
+### 'Added'
+
+1. Added cDNA and CDS outputs to <OUTPUT_DIR>/annotations/<SAMPLE> directory [#118](https://github.com/Plant-Food-Research-Open/genepal/issues/118)
+2. Added parameter `add_attrs_to_proteins_cds_fastas`
+3. Added parameter `filter_genes_by_aa_length` with default set to `24` which allows removal of genes with ORFs shorter than 24 [#125](https://github.com/Plant-Food-Research-Open/genepal/issues/125)
+
+### `Fixed`
+
+1. Fixed an issue where TSEBRA failed because LIFTOFF lifted non-protein coding genes [#121](https://github.com/Plant-Food-Research-Open/genepal/issues/121)
+2. Switched branch name from `master` to `main` in the GHA CIs
+3. Fixed an issue in `genepal_report.Rmd` which caused the pangene matrix plot to fail when the number of clusters exceeded 65536 [#124](https://github.com/Plant-Food-Research-Open/genepal/issues/124)
+4. Fixed an issue where `GENEPALREPORT` process failed due to OOM kill signal from SLURM [#123](https://github.com/Plant-Food-Research-Open/genepal/issues/123)
+5. Fixed an issue where Gff merge after liftoff failed when one of the Gff files did not contain any genes
+6. Fixed an issue where `gxf_fasta_agat_spaddintrons_spextractsequences` crashed due to short introns [#89](https://github.com/Plant-Food-Research-Open/genepal/issues/89)
+
+### `Dependencies`
+
+1. Nextflow!>=24.04.2
+2. [email protected]
+
+### `Deprecated`
