 ## Resubmission
 
-* Updated URLs to start with https instead of http in DESCRIPTION and README.md
-* Fixed DOI format in DESCRIPTION
-* Updated package version number in DESCRIPTION
+* Placed package names and software names in single quotes in DESCRIPTION
+* Updated CITATION with current journal article information
+* Explained that the word 'SnpEff' in the descriptoin text is not an acronym, but the name of a piece of software
 
 ## Package update
 Prewas was archived from CRAN on 2020-07-05 because a dependency, vcfR, was archived on CRAN. Since then vcfR has been updated on CRAN and so prewas will now be able to install successfully.
