A Corrigendum on
Acute imidacloprid exposure alters mitochondrial function in bumblebee flight muscle and brain

by Sargent C, Ebanks B, Hardy ICW, Davies TGE, Chakrabarti L and Stöger R (2021). Front. Insect Sci. 1:765179. doi: 10.3389/finsc.2021.765179

In the published article, there was an error in Figure 1 as published. The LEAK respiration was incorrectly labelled. The corrected Figure 1 and its caption appear below.

Figure 1

Figure 1 Annotated representation of the O2k oxygraph output. The red line is the oxygen flux. Routine is shown before the addition of Omy. LEAK state can be determined after the inhibition of ATP synthase by Omy. The maximum electron capacity is determined as the highest peak after CCCP titrations. The spare respiratory capacity and its relative value can be calculated via the calculation, [(ET capacity specific flux)/(Routine specific flux × 100)]. AmA, a complex III inhibitor, is added to determine the residual oxygen consumption (ROX) as the baseline state and allow for background correction. Omy, oligomycin; CCCP, carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone; AmA, antimycin A.

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