This article is a correction to:
The Hierarchy of Protoxylem Groupings in Primary Root and Their Plasticity to Nitrogen Addition in Three Tree Species
A Corrigendum on
The hierarchy of protoxylem groupings in primary root and their plasticity to nitrogen addition in three tree species
by Li Z, Wang S, Wang W, Gu J and Wang Y (2022) Front. Plant Sci. 13:903318. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2022.903318
In the published article, there were errors in Figures 5, 6 and 7 as published. The word “proxylem” was misspelled. This should have been written as “protoxylem “. The corrected Figures 5, 6 and 7 and their captions “FIGURE 5. Protoxylem group composition in different root developmental order for Juglans mandshurica (A-D), Fraxinus mandshurica (E-G) and Phellodendron amurense (H-J) under control (CK) and fertilization (+N), respectively. Different lower-case letters indicate significant differences in composition between control and fertilization within each root developmental order according to chi-square test (P<0.05)”, “FIGURE 6. Relationship between the root protoxylem groups number and root length, root diameter and root stele diameter in Juglans mandshurica (A, D, G), Fraxinus mandshurica (B, E, H) and Phellodendron amurense (C, F, I), respectively” and “FIGURE 7. Relationship between the root protoxylem groups number and the number and diameter of root conduit, as well as hydraulic conductivity in Juglans mandshurica (A, D, G), Fraxinus mandshurica (B, E, H) and Phellodendron amurense (C, F, I), respectively” appear below.
