GAG is ignoring the locus_tag information from the gff #194

Closed anausie closed 6 years ago

anausie commented 6 years ago

Hi, My Gff file has the locus_tag description for each gene (locus_tag=XXXX_XXXX), but GAG seems to ignore that and define as locus_tag in the .tbl file the gene ID/Name. Due to this, I have to edit the .tbl file in order to set the correct locus tag value, which, in my opinion, it shouldn't be necessary if the information is already in the gff file. Why it is ignoring the information provided about that in the gff file?

Thanks in advance

Per GFF3 specs it should be ID=, locus_tag= is not a recognized field.

So, that means that I have to set the locus tag value in the ID= field in order to GAG recognize it...

Thanks
