[maker-devel] maker output- transcripts.fasta and proteins.fasta files missing

Note protein/transcript fasts are only created when there are gene models to
output to those files (so their absence means there were no gene models for
that contig). Most sequences without protein/transcript fasts in your sample
are very short and thus don’t contain anything.  What is left either have no
est2genome results or the est2genome alignments do not have sufficient open
reading frame to be turned into a gene model (false merging of regions by
trinity can cause this, so make sure you use the jaccard index option when
assembling reads with trinity to avoid this).

You are using only the est2genome=1 option.  This will result in a limited
set of genes that can be used for training SNAP/Augustus (so not getting
results on all contigs is expected).  You really won’t get much as far as
results until you have one of the ab initio predictors turned on.

Thanks,
Carson
