Correction: Bayesian Inference of Reticulate Phylogenies under the Multispecies Network Coalescent

There is an error in the Results section, under the subsection “A Bayesian model of reticulate phylogenies” for Equation 4. Specifically, in the prior, η should be a hyper parameter for the prior on Ψ_top (the diameter of the reticulation events). Please view the complete, correct equation here:

$$p\left(\Psi |\nu ,\delta ,\eta \right)=p\left({\Psi }_{ret}|\nu \right)\times p\left({\Psi }_{\lambda }|\delta \right)\times p\left({\Psi }_{top}|{\Psi }_{ret},{\Psi }_{\lambda },\eta \right).$$

Additionally, there is an error in the Results section under the subsection “A reversible-jump Markov chain Monte Carlo sampler”. Specifically, in the third paragraph, the following sentence in the MCMC algorithm is incorrect: “where J is the Jacobian of the transformation from {x, u} to {x′, u′}.” This sentence should read: “where |J| is the absolute value of the determinant of the Jacobian of the transformation from {x, u} to {x′, u′}.”
