[maker-devel] est_gff input does not provide any gene model

Evidence such as est_gff has to follow the alignment format used by GFF3 (i.e. match/match_part) whereas you are providing gene models (i.e. gene/mRNA/exon/CDS). Note that match/match_part are two level features whereas gene models are 3 levels. You need to reformat to match/match_part.
