Data Wrangling - M.capitata Genome GFF to GTF Using gffread

As part of getting these three coral species genome files (GitHub Issue) added to our Lab Handbook Genomic Resources page, I will index the M.capitata genome file (Montipora_capitata_HIv3.assembly.fasta) using HISAT2, but need a GTF file to also identify exon/intro splice sites. Since a GTF file is not available, but a GFF file is, I needed to convert the GFF to GTF. Used gffread to do this on my computer. Process is documented in Jupyter Notebook linked below.
