Dear all,

I observed two different numbers of protein coding genes for the Zea_mays reference genome version 3.
Based on the gtf file "Zea_mays.AGPv3.31.gtf", released 10.03.2016, 39,469 genes were protein coding. However on MaizeGDB website I read that 39,475 genes are protein coding (http://www.maizegdb.org/assembly#fgs). 
Could you please clearify which is the correct number?

Thanks in advance,
Jutta
