Correction to: Scientific Reports 10.1038/s41598-025-30489-1, published online 01 December 2025

The original version of this Article contained an error in the Introduction section.

“Cyanobacteria had evolved oxygenic photosynthesis during the Mesoarchaean (3.2–2.8 million years ago) and became dominant in virtually all sunlit environments by 2.7 billion years ago.”

now reads:

“Cyanobacteria had evolved oxygenic photosynthesis during the Mesoarchaean (3.2–2.8 billion years ago) and became dominant in virtually all sunlit environments by 2.7 billion years ago.”

The original Article has been corrected.
