[ensembl-dev] ncRNA gene trees

Thank you very much for your answers,

NCTree is indeed working, although some of the methods described in the 
NCTree Adaptor do not actually work for ncRNAs (for example 
"fetch_by_Member_root_id")

Another observation is that quite a lot of the NCTrees fail to load 
using the API. This is also the case using the Gene Tree view of the 
Ensembl website...
For example look at:
http://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Gene/Compara_Tree?g=ENSG00000222692
http://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Gene/Compara_Tree?g=ENSG00000215960

What do you think is happening?
Best,
Julien
