Corrigendum: Pathway Editing Targets for Thiamine Biofortification in Rice Grains

  • Department of Biotechnology, University Institute of Engineering and Technology, Panjab University, Chandigarh, India

In the original article “(Dong et al., 2016)” was cited in the supplementary data but not in the published version of the original article. On Dr. Aymeric Goyer note, the citation has now been inserted in the section “Attempts for genetic modification of thiamine biosynthesis pathway” and should read: “Overexpressing thi4 and thiC in rice increases grain thiamine content by ~5 fold but display no altered resistance to Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Pourcel et al., 2013; Dong et al., 2015, 2016)”.

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.
