McAssey, E. V., Downs, C., Yorkston, M., Morden, C., and Heyduk, K. 2023. A comparison of freezer‐stored DNA and herbarium tissue samples for chloroplast assembly and genome skimming. Applications in Plant Sciences 11(3): e11527
A statistical error was found after article publication. The relevant text from the Results section is provided below, with the corrected values shown in bold text. The error does not affect the findings of the study.
“Herbarium tissue library samples had significantly smaller insert sizes of mapped chloroplast reads compared to their freezer‐stored DNA paired samples, taking into account covariates of read numbers and year ( F 1,25 = 229.243, P < 0.001). There was also a significant interaction effect between library size and sampling year ( F 1,25 = 9.753, P < 0.01). Similarly, herbarium tissue samples also had higher amounts of adapter sequences in the reads ( F 1,25 = 85.009, P < 0.001), with sampling year a significant covariate in the model ( F 1,25 = 6.378, P < 0.05).”
We apologize for this error.
