An Erratum on
A 3D printed device for easy and reliable quantification of fungal chemotropic growth

by Schunke, C., Pöggeler, S., and Nordzieke, D. E. (2020). Front. Microbiol. 11:584525. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2020.584525

Due to a production error, in the Methods section, sub-section “Evaluation of Directed Growth Patterns,” the equations were incorrectly displayed. The correct equations are given below.

chemotropic index [%]=({(number of attracted fungal tipssum of all fungal tips)*100}-50)*2
chemotropic rate [%]=(number of attracted fungal tipssum of all fungal tips)*100

The publisher apologizes for this mistake. The original article has been updated.

Keywords: chemotropism, 3D printed device, glucose, Colletotrichum graminicola, filamentous fungi
