Correction to ‘Transcriptional regulation of brain gene expression in response to a territorial intrusion in sticklebacks’

Proc. R. Soc. B 279, 4929–4938. (12 November 2012; Published online 24 October 2012) (doi:10.1098/rspb.2012.2087)

It has come to our attention that the direction of regulation reported in Sanogo et al. [1] is incorrect. Genes that were upregulated in experimental males were, in fact, downregulated and vice versa.

The following sentence on page 4932 that begins, ‘“Upregulation” indicates higher expression in experimental males compared with controls’ should instead read ‘“upregulation” indicates higher expression in control males compared with experimentals’.

The following caption to figure 1 that states, ‘where “up” refers to higher expression in experimental males’ should instead read ‘where “up” refers to higher expression in control males’.

In electronic supplementary material, tables S4–S7, the sign of the fold change (FC) is opposite.
