Correction to: Nature Microbiology https://doi.org/10.1038/s41564-018-0352-y, published online 28 January 2019.

In Fig. 1d of the version of this Article originally published, two black vertical lines were erroneously introduced in the bottom row of the western blot gel, and the third row from the top of the gel was not outlined correctly. The corrected Fig. 1d is shown below. In addition, the authors mistakenly duplicated the phrase “at 4 °C, LRV1 was detected at later time points, suggesting viral elimination dependent on parasite metabolism (Fig. 5d)” in the section titled ‘LRV1 is transferred among Leishmania species via exosomes’. These amendments have now been made in all versions of the Article.
