Correction to: Nature Communications https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-023-38850-6, published online 12 June 2023

In the original version of this Article, in the third paragraph of the Discussion the equation ‘\(T=\left(\begin{array}{c}s\\ 2\end{array}\right)\cdot d\cdot {s}^{d-1}\)’ incorrectly presented the equation as ‘\(T=\left(\begin{array}{c}s\\ 2\end{array}\right)\cdot d\cdot {s}^{d1}\)’. In addition, in the fifth paragraph of the Discussion, the term “mutation probability ‘zM’ was incorrectly presented as mutation probability ‘zM’. These have been corrected in both the HTML and PDF versions of the Article.
