A corrigendum on
Physcomitrella Patens Dehydrins (PpDHNA and PpDHNC) Confer Salinity and Drought Tolerance to Transgenic Arabidopsis Plants
by Li, Q., Zhang, X., Lv, Q., Zhu, D., Qiu, T., Xu, Y., et al. (2017). Front. Plant Sci. 8:1316. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2017.01316
Original text
A DHN gene knockout P. patens mutant showed poorer recovery from salt and osmotic stress compared to the wild-type (WT), indicating that DHNs are indispensable for the alleviation of cell dehydration (Saavedra et al., 2006).
Modified text
A DHN gene knockout P. patens mutant showed poorer stress resistance and recovery from salt and osmotic pressure compared to the wild-type (WT), indicating that DHNs are indispensable for the alleviation of cell dehydration (Saavedra et al., 2006; Ruibal et al., 2012).
Original text
DHN genes are highly expressed under conditions of various types of stress, such as drought, cold, or high salinity (Yoon et al., 2009).
Modified text
DHN genes are highly expressed under conditions of various types of stress, such as drought, cold, or high salinity (Yoon et al., 2009; Agarwal et al., 2016).
In the original article, we neglected to cite two previous studies. The authors apologize for this oversight. This error does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way.
