[ensembl-dev] Gene adaptor when the species is unknown

[Sébastien Moretti]

Hi,
I wonder if there is another way to create a gene adaptor.
I use that but it is linked to a particular species:
      my $gene_adaptor = $reg->get_adaptor( 'Human', 'Core', 'Gene' );


I would like to get information about genes from ensembl gene 
identifiers (stable_id) without knowing a priori the species.
I.e. what I have to put in the 'Human' place.


So, is there something more generic to create gene adaptor ?

Best regards
