The following two sentences, appearing on p 2642, need to be modified:

“Using a new dedicated method, Daboussi et al. [232] targeted the diatom model organism Phaeodactylum tricornutum and used zinc finger nucleases, meganucleases, and transcription activator-like effector nucleases to edit Phaeodactylum tricornutum by inducing targeted mutagenesis of certain genes responsible for HVM production. This led to formation of a mutant diatom Tn 19745_1 that produces 45 times more lipid than the control and further increased the HVM production when grown in nutrient-stressed media.”

These sentences should read (changes are indicated in bold)

“Using a new dedicated method, Daboussi et al. [232] targeted the diatom model organism Phaeodactylum tricornutum and used zinc finger nucleases, meganucleases, and transcription activator-like effector nucleases TALEN to edit Phaeodactylum tricornutum by inducing targeted mutagenesis of certain genes responsible for HVM production. This led to formation of a mutant diatom Tn 19745_1 that produces 45 times more TAG than the control and further increased the HVM production when grown in nutrient-stressed media.”

The authors would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused to the readers by these changes.
