This article is a correction to:
RfpA, RfpB, and RfpC are the Master Control Elements of Far-Red Light Photoacclimation (FaRLiP)
A Corrigendum on
RfpA, RfpB, and RfpC are the Master Control Elements of Far-Red Light Photoacclimation (FaRLiP)

In the original article, there was a mistake in Figure 1 as published. In Panel F, the lane labeled “ΔrfpB” should have been labeled “WT”, while the lane labeled “WT” should have been labeled “ΔrfpB”. The corrected Figure 1 appears below.
Figure 1. The organization of the FaRLiP gene cluster in Chl. fritschii PCC 9212 and construction and validation of rfpA, rfpB, and rfpC deletion mutants. (A) Gene organization of the FaRLiP gene cluster in Chl. fritschii PCC 9212. Red boxes represent genes encoding core subunits of PS I; green boxes represent genes encoding core subunits of PS II; blue boxes represent genes encoding core components of the phycobilisome; brown boxes represent regulatory rfp genes; and gray boxes represent genes that are not found in other FaRLiP clusters. (B) Schematic showing deletion of rfpA. The small arrows (P1 and P2) indicate the positions of the primers used for PCR verification of deletion. (C) Schematic showing deletion of rfpB. The small arrows (P3 and P4) indicate the positions of primers used for PCR verification of the deletion. (D) Schematic showing deletion of rfpC. The small arrows (P5 and P6) indicate the positions of primers used for PCR verification of the deletion. (E) Agarose gel electrophoresis of amplicons showing complete segregation of wild-type and mutant rfpA alleles. (F) Agarose gel electrophoresis of amplicons showing complete segregation of wild-type and mutant rfpB alleles. (G) Agarose gel electrophoresis of amplicons showing complete segregation of wild-type and mutant rfpC alleles.
The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
