Retraction of: Scientific Reports 10.1038/s41598-019-56321-1, published online 27 December 2019

The Editors have retracted this Article at the request of the corresponding author.

Several errors were discovered in the data-sets used to construct the phylogenetic trees, including duplicate sequences, incorrect accession numbers, and the inadvertent inclusion of a bacterial sequence. In addition, the EF1-α and RPB2 sequences cited in Table 2 were poorly amplified and sequenced, reducing the reliability of their application in tree constructions. As a result, the phylogenetic trees reported in the paper cannot be replicated.

Zhongdong Yu agrees with this retraction. Phonepaserd Phanpadidth and Tao Li have not responded to correspondence regarding this retraction.
