A corrigendum on
Insights into the Sesquiterpenoid Pathway by Metabolic Profiling and De novo Transcriptome Assembly of Stem-Chicory (Cichorium intybus Cultigroup “Catalogna”)

by Testone, G., Mele, G., Di Giacomo, E., Gonnella, M., Renna, M., Tenore, G. C., et al. (2016). Front. Plant Sci. 7:1676. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2016.01676

There were these typing errors: “Mbp” (incorrect) instead of “cM” (correct) and “Bernardes” (incorrect) instead of “Bernardes” (correct).

In the Introduction, the sentence “The C. intybus species has a large (2n = 2x = 18; size 1405 Mbp) and complex genome (De Simone et al., 1997; Berardes et al., 2013).”

In the Discussion, the sentence (5th indent) “Cichorium intybus genome is esteemed ca.1400 MB (De Simone et al., 1997),”

were respectively corrected as follows:

“The C. intybus species has a large (2n = 2x = 18; size 1405 cM) and complex genome (De Simone et al., 1997; Bernardes et al., 2013).”

Cichorium intybus genome is esteemed ca.1400 cM (De Simone et al., 1997).”

In the References section, the surname “Bernardes” was replaced with “Bernardes.”

The authors apologize for these errors and state that these do not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way.
