[ensembl-dev] Huge branch lengths in gene trees

[Moretti Sébastien]

Hi

I found some gene trees that have huge branch lengths:
e.g. tree ENSGT00560000076605, gene ENSCJAG00000001973
The branch leading to that gene/leaf is  100000  long.
http://www.ensembl.org/Callithrix_jacchus/Gene/Compara_Tree?g=ENSCJAG00000001973;r=ACFV01174532.1:4628-45447;t=ENSCJAT00000003772

What does it mean ?
Is it an upper branch length limit ?

Thanks
