Error when using non-human GTF about talon HOT 2 OPEN

I am not certain that this is a problem with your GTF. Can you try running the following python code to see what annotations are in your TALON database?

import sqlite3

database = <your talon database>

conn = sqlite3.connect(database)
cursor = conn.cursor()

cursor.execute("SELECT DISTINCT annot_name FROM gene_annotations")
annotations = [str(x[0]) for x in cursor.fetchall()]
conn.close()

print(annotations)

from talon.

Actually, it looks like it might be your GTF. Despite the results of your awk command, when I download your file, I can't seem to find any gene entries:
cat GCF_012559485.2_MFA1912RKSv2.ncbiRefSeq.gtf | cut -f3 | grep gene | head yields nothing. Check out this wiki entry on adding gene entries to a GTF.
