Correction to: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-51444-x, published online 25 October 2019
In the Supplementary Information file ‘Dataset 1’, originally published with this Article, an additional column listing animal ID information was provided. Due to an existing confidentiality agreement, this column has been removed in the ‘Dataset 1’ file that now accompanies the Article.
As a result, in the Materials and Methods section under subheading ‘Sampling and detection of Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae’,
“We obtained 594 samples from M. ovipneumoniae-infected bighorn sheep (n = 349), mountain goats (n = 12), domestic sheep (n = 207), and domestic goats (n = 26) that were submitted between 1984 and 2017 to the Washington Animal Disease and Diagnostic Laboratory (WADDL) for diagnostic testing or for research purposes (Table S1; Dataset 1). Sample types submitted varied widely: from live animals, they were predominantly submitted as nasal swabs, but from sick animals or necropsy cases included pneumonic lung tissue and/or swabs of the bronchi, trachea, sinus linings or middle ears. Domestic sheep were sampled by the USDA-APHIS-VS National Animal Health Monitoring System (NAHMS) during a survey conducted in 2011, as detailed in Manlove et al.20.”
now reads:
“We obtained sequence data from 594 samples from M. ovipneumoniae-infected bighorn sheep (n = 349), mountain goats (n = 12), domestic sheep (n = 207), and domestic goats (n = 26). Some samples were submitted between 1984 and 2017 to the Washington Animal Disease and Diagnostic Laboratory (WADDL) for diagnostic testing or to the Besser Laboratory for research purposes (Table S1; Dataset 1). Data originated from M. ovipneumoniae detected in multiple sample types, but the predominant sample type was deep nasal swabs from live, apparently healthy animals. Samples from necropsy cases included pneumonic lung tissue and/or swabs of the bronchi, trachea, sinus linings or middle ears. Many domestic sheep were originally part of a previously published study as detailed in Manlove et al.20. Other domestic sheep and goat samples were obtained by convenience sampling of private operations by the Besser Laboratory.”
