A corrigendum on
Biopesticides as an alternative to synthetic pesticides: a case for nanopesticides, phytopesticides and microbial pesticides
by Ayilara, M. S., Adeleke, B. S., Akinola, S. A., Fayose, C. A., Adeyemi, U. T., Gbadegesin, L. A., Omole, R. K., Johnson, R. M., Uthman, Q. O., and Babalola, O. O. (2023). Front. Microbiol. 14:1040901. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1040901
In the published article, there was an error with Figure 1. There was a close similarity between Figure 1 and a previously published Figure. The corrected Figure 1 and its caption appear below.
Figure 1
Figure 1. Classification of bio-pesticides and their target pests.
