A Corrigendum on
Identification and validation of quantitative trait loci for Wheat Dwarf Virus resistance in wheat (Triticum spp.)

by Pfrieme A-K, Ruckwied B, Habekuß A, Will T, Stahl A, Pillen K and Ordon F (2022) 13:828639. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2022.828639

In the published article, there was an error in Table 4. Table 4 represents the P values of Supplementary Table S7. In Table S7, false P-values and means were reported for the populations FixFa, FixS, FixRe, and RexFi. After their correction, the total number of significant differences decreased. However, there are no differences in the QTL that show significance. In conclusion, 14 of the 35 QTL that were identified by GWAS are shown to be significant. The overall statement remains unchanged. Table 4 is mentioned in Results “Validation of Quantitative trait loci”. For this reason, an adjustment is also made in the text. The corrected Table 4 and its caption appears below.

TABLE 4
www.frontiersin.org

Table 4 Validations of the identified QTL using a t-Test, *, ** indicate significant differences between allele means at 5% and 1% level, respectively.

There were also errors in Supplementary Tables S7 and S8. In Table S7, false P-values and means were reported for the populations FixFa, FixS, FixRe, and RexFi. After their correction, the total number of significances has decreased. However, there are no differences in the number of QTL that show a significant difference. In the conclusion, 14 of the 35 GWAS QTL are shown to be significant. The statement remains unchanged.

In Supplementary Table S8, the determined values of the simple and multiple regression analysis are given. An error occurred in the simple regression analysis of FixS and FixRe (values of FixFa were accidently given in both columns). However, the correction only affects this table, as it is not described in the results section. The values for the multiple regression analysis are correct.

The description of the validated QTL had to be changed because they referred to the error in Table 4. A correction has been made in Results “Validation of Quantitative trait loci”. This sentence previously stated:

“One QTL for relYield and ten for the extinction showed significant effects to varying degrees across all populations. The most significant effects were observed for TKW with 11 significant QTL (Table 4 and Supplementary Table S7). Looking at the significances at the population level, most were observed for the FixRe population. In particular, four QTL for relPH and four QTL for relYield on chromosome 1B (WDV_PH_1B1, WDV_PH_1B2, WDV_PH_1B3, WDV_PH_1B4, WDV_Yield_1B1, WDV_Yield_1B2, WDV_Yield_1B3, WDV_Yield_1B4) showed highly significant and consistent effects in all populations. The effects of WDV_PH_7A1 for the trait relYield and those of WDV_Yield_1B2- 1B4 were only validated in two populations. An effect of WDV_PH_4A3, WDV_PH_6A1, WDV_Yield_1B1, WDV_Yield_1B3 and WDV_Yield_1B4 was only confirmed in the FixRe population.”

The corrected sentence appears below:

“Two QTL for relYield and ten for the extinction value (relative virus titer) showed significant effects to varying degrees across all populations. The most significant effects were observed for TKW with 11 significant QTL (Table 4 and Supplementary Table S7). Looking at significant differences at the population level, most were observed for the FixFa population. In particular, one QTL for relYield on chromosome 1B (WDV_Yield_1B1) showed highly significant and consistent effects in all populations. The contributions of WDV_PH_1B1-1B5 and WDV_Yield_1B1-WDV_Yield_1B4 were significant in three populations. The effects of WDV_PH_7A1 were only validated in two populations. An effect of WDV_PH_3B1 and WDV_PH_6A1 was only confirmed in the FixFa population.”

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.
