Dear Andy,

Many thanks for your quick response and the helpful tip. By specifying 
-db_version 66, VEP worked with Arabidopsis.

Have a nice weekend,

Weihong

Until they do so, which is scheduled for May 29th, you will have to use the VEP compatible with the version 66 API or specify a -db_version 66 flag on your command line&  hope 66&  67 are compatible enough for this to work.
