Following publication of the original article [1], the authors would like to remove the phrase ‘vertically transmitted’ from the last sentence in the fourth paragraph under the heading Background.

The sentence originally read:

In addition to serving as crop disease vectors, thrips support vertically transmitted, facultative bacterial symbionts that reside in the hindgut [27, 28].

The sentence should read:

In addition to serving as crop disease vectors, thrips support facultative bacterial symbionts that reside in the hindgut [27, 28].

The original article [1] has been corrected.
