In Table 1B, Equations 14a–c, the denominators (e.g., Ns + Ni) should be the entire Escherichia coli population (N = Ns + Ni + Nr). The corrected Equations 14a–c appear below.
In the MATLAB code provided in the Supplementary Materials, the denominator of Equation 14 (plasmid_transfert_si, plasmid_transfert_sr, plasmid_transfert_ir) was, correctly, the entire E. coli population. This correction does not impact the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The authors apologize for this mistake.
