[maker-devel] Maker, no fasta files in output

Hi Anna,

The lack of results means you either had no results from SNAP or no evidence supporting results in your run. You can check for SNAP results just by looking for snap_masked features in the GFF3. For evidence, make sure you still provided the protein= and est= files even though you tunred off est2genome/protein2genome.
