Re: makeTranscriptDbFromBiomart - chrominfo failure

Hi Stefanie,

This is not an error but a warning.  It means that the data resource you 
are extracting from does not indicate which chromosomes are 
circular/linear or how long the various chromosomes are.  You have to 
decide if that matters to you or not.  If it matters, then you might 
want to see the manual page for seqlengths() and isCircular() and 
consider settting that information manually.
