Additionally, in the second paragraph of the Supplementary Material section entitled “Evidence for Chloroplast Capture?” in the sentence beginning “The species Chrysophyllum cuneifolium is inferred to have originated… ” the citation of Särkinen et al., 2007, should instead be: Swenson, U., Richardson, J.
