Abstract

Following the publication of this article [1], the authors informed us of the following error. The authors wish to make it known that they mistakenly used some unpublished data from the Joint Genome Institute (JGI) database in some parts of this article in a way that violates the JGI usage agreement. They are therefore issuing a correction to their article in which Fig. 14 and all text in the article that refers to results involving JGI data are excluded. Specifically, the sections to be disregarded are comparisons to the JGI sequences described in the section titled "Characteristics of the C. graminicola and C. sublineola NCPs": comparisons with S3.001 from the section titled "SSP and SSM diversity among isolates": and the summarized numbers of unique SSPs and SSMs in the abstract. The revised sentence in the abstract should read "Only 98 SSP genes appeared to be specific to C. graminicola, and 103 to C. sublineola". It is important to note that these revisions do not change the conclusions of the paper in any meaningful way. The authors apologize to Dr. Crouch and the other principal investigators of the relevant JGI Community Sequencing Project (https://genome.jgi.doe.gov/portal/Gensignvironment/Gensignvironment.info.html) for this error.
