Hi Trevor
This limit also applies to the martservice requests but you may be
able to modify the perl script to run the query in batches of 4
species at a time to get around this.

Rhoda

Listing Homolog attributes for a query in the ensembl biomart web
interface has a limit of 5 ortholog sets...
i.e/ it returns an error message if you select more than 5
‘Validation Error: Too many groups select for homologs Max allowed :
5’
Does this limit also apply to direct web service requests?
Or will I be able to construct a query for all orthologs for a given
ensembl gene?
