Correction to ‘Acquisition and metabolism of carbon in the Ochrophyta other than diatoms’

Phil. Trans. R. Soc. B 372, 20160400 (Published Online 17 July 2017) (doi:10.1098/rstb.2016.0400)

There are errors in column 8 (Phagotrophy) of table 3. The errors concerned the distribution of phagotrophy among photosynthetic stramenopiles; these errors do not conflict with table 1 or the rest of the paper. The corrected form of table 3 is presented here. The authors apologize for any inconvenience.

Table 3.

Summary of mechanisms of inorganic carbon acquisition and assimilation among classes in the Ochrophyta. No data are available for the Aureanophyceae, Bolidophyceae, Chrysomeridophyceae, Dictyochophyceae, Pelagophyceae, Phaeothamniophyceae, Pinguiophyceae, Schizocladiophyceae and Synchromophyceae.
