A Corrigendum on
Zearalenone exposure enhanced the expression of tumorigenesis genes in donkey granulosa cells via the PTEN/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway
by Zhang G-L, Song J-L, Ji C-L, Feng Y-L, Yu J, Nyachoti CM and Yang G-S (2018). Front. Genet. 9:293. doi: 10.3389/fgene.2018.00293
In the published article, there was an error in Figure 5B as published. The Western blot picture of the PI3K gene is incorrect. The corrected Figure 5B and its caption Figure 5 appear below.

Figure 5. Zearalenone exposure affecting mRNA and protein abundance of tumorigenesis related genes in cultured GCs. (A) Quantitative RT-PCR for CDK2, TGFβ, and ATM transcription factors. The mRNA levels of all genes were normalized to GCs GAPDH gene. (B) Protein levels of CDK2/GAPDH TGFβ/GAPDH, and ATM/GAPDH by Western blotting. The protein levels were normalized to GAPDH. The results are presented as mean ± SD. All experiments were repeated at least three times. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01.
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.
