Hi again Uma,
I'm experiencing some more problems when using the API v.65 and
ensemblgenomes species. I create a registry as above (ie multiple call)
and use database "pan_homology". The following call
$registry->alias_exists('Plasmodium falciparum')
returns 1 - when it should return 0 - because this taxon name and its
ID are not amongst the 605 pan_homologies species. So, trusting the
alias_exists() output, I was trying to get a genome adaptor as follows
my $gdb = $genomedb_adaptor->fetch_by_taxon_id('5833');
which fails with an exception.
Are there known problems when using alias_exists() with ensemblgenomes
taxa?
Thanks in advance
Best
G
