An explanation for why the AnnotationDbi has so many more genes #23

Closed mistrm82 closed 5 years ago

The orgDb reduces genes to almost half ~25K; whereas EnsDb (albeit older release) retains 50K. Add an explanation and look into the differences

orgDb is from Entrez IDs; probably lacking pseudogenes, non-coding genes etc
