A Corrigendum on
Copy Number Heterogeneity in the Virulence Plasmid of Salmonella enterica

by Sánchez-Romero, M. A., Mérida-Floriano, Á., and Casadesús, J. (2020). Front. Microbiol. 11:599931. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2020.599931

In the original article, there was a mistake in the heading of Table 3 as published: in the first column on the left, O.D.600 is incorrect. The correct heading is Time. The corrected Table 3 appears below.

TABLE 3
www.frontiersin.org

Table 3. Number of plasmid of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (pSLT) copies per chromosome, determined by qPCR.

In the original article, there was an error in the Abstract. The corrected sentence should read:

In contrast, heterogeneity in the number of foci appears to be independent of the cell volume and may have stochastic origin.

In the Introduction section, paragraph 4, the sentence should read:

Plasmid pSLT has a low (≥1) copy number per cell (Camacho et al., 2005), etc.

In the Serum Treatment section, the second sentence should read:

Cultures were split into two…

In the Heterogeneity of pSLT Copy Number Along the Growth Cycle, the fifth sentence should read:

Average foci numbers are shown…

In the Effect of pSLT Copy Number Variation on Gene Expression Heterogeneity section, the fifth sentence should read:

variation in GFP expression.

The authors apologize for these errors and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.

Keywords: Salmonella, virulence plasmid, copy number, phenotypic heterogeneity, noise
