After publication of our article [1], we became aware that there were errors in Fig. 7b, namely the negative control of pLacZi + pJG4-5-RhMYB108 (2nd row, panel 1). The error does not affect the result, discussion or conclusion in the article. The correct version of Figure is shown below. We apologise to the journal and to readers for this error.

Fig. 7.

a qRT-PCR analysis of SAG expression in RhMYB108-silenced petals. b Interaction of RhMYB108 protein with the SAG promoter regions, as revealed using yeast one-hybrid assays. Interactions were determined based on yeast cell growth and were confirmed by the color indication of X-β-gal on SD/-Trp/-Ura medium plates. c, d Images of firefly luciferase fluorescence signals and relative reporter activity (LUC/REN) in N. benthamiana leaves. RhMYB108 protein was separately coexpressed with pNAC053::LUC, pNAC092::LUC and pSAG113::LUC in tobacco leaves. After 48 h of Agrobacterium tumefaciens infiltration, live LUC images and relative LUC activity (LUC/REN) in tobacco leaves were assayed. The error bars represent the means of six biological replicates, and the asterisks indicate statistically significant differences according to Student’s t test (*P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001; ****P < 0.0001).
