Following publication of the original article [1], the authors reported an error in the Results section. Under the heading “Gene ontology enrichment analysis”, they wrote:

“In females at the juvenile stage, GO terms associated to glycogen metabolism (glycogen metabolic processes, insulin receptor signalling pathway) and to heart development were enriched for genes down-regulated under EE2.”

This text should be corrected as follows:

“In females at the juvenile stage, GO terms associated to glycogen metabolism (glycogen metabolic processes, insulin receptor signalling pathway) and to heart development were enriched for genes up-regulated under EE2.”

The enrichment as noted in Table S4 remains correct.

The authors wish to acknowledge Dr. Anke Lange, University of Exeter, who discovered the mistake and reported it.
