A Corrigendum on
Alterations of Gut Microbiome in the Patients With Severe Fever With Thrombocytopenia Syndrome
by Xu, H., Wei, Y., Ma, H., Liu, Y., Zhang, Y., Hu, L., et al. (2018). Front. Microbiol. 9:2315. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2018.02315
In the original article, there was a mistake in Figure 2 as published. In this article, Figure 2 is used to introduce the taxonomic differences of gut microbiota between SFTS and healthy control groups. According to the reviewers' helpful comments, we tried to integrate one chart and three tables from the original manuscript into one new figure. However, there are some misalignments in the label of the Y-axis in Figure 2. When integrating these four images (A, B, C, and D) into Figure 2, the order of the Y-axis annotations of each graph were reversed. The corrected Figure 2 appears below.
FIGURE 2
Figure 2. Taxonomic differences of gut microbiota between SFTS, health control groups. Comparison of relative abundance at the bacterial phylum (A), class (B), family (C), genus (D) between the two groups. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01.
The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way.
