does not load gtf with chromose information

Opened this issue · 1 comments

Some species (like champanzee for example) have superior GTF that also has chromosome information ( for example http://ftp.ensembl.org/pub/release-110/gtf/pan_troglodytes/Pan_troglodytes.Pan_tro_3.0.110.chr.gtf.gz ), but genomepy does not download it

Hey Anton,

The README on that page doesn't mention the differences between the ...chr.gtf.gz and ...gtf.gz files, but at a glance it seems the ...chr.gtf.gz contains only genes found on the chromosomes. Perhaps I'm missing something?

Could you tell me how the ...chr.gtf.gz file is better than the regular gtf file, and if the ...chr.gtf.gz is always better or only some assemblies?
