[ensembl-dev] Problems with biomart when trying to use "GRMZM2G" gene IDs for maize

Hello,

I am analysing a Transcryptome Data Set with the Bioconductor package BiomaRt. I had no trouble using it during the past month but now it seems it does not recognise gene IDs from Maize. Whenever I use the getBM function in R it only retrieves values for this gene "zma-MIR319d".  I am using listMarts(host="plants.ensembl.org") as host.


The same is happening when I try to enter the query list online (http://plants.ensembl.org/biomart/martview/45e2918700bd27c5690289d7265b6fc5), not of my genes with GRMZM2G notation are recognised.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you in advance for your answer.

Carlos?
