Correction to: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-49207-9, published online 03 September 2019


This Article contained errors.


As a result of a typographic error, in the Abstract the abbreviation for nitride oxide nitrogen and ammonium nitrogen were swapped. Additionally, ammonium ion was incorrectly marked as an anion. Therefore in the Abstract,


“In experiment 1, plants were precultured in a nutrient solution with excess Fe (40 μM Fe(II)-EDTA) for 14 d and then supplied NO3-N (AN) or NH4-N (NN) without Fe for 3, 6, or 12 d."


now reads:


“In experiment 1, plants were precultured in a nutrient solution with excess Fe (40 μM Fe(II)-EDTA) for 14 d and then supplied NO3-N (NN) or NH4+-N (AN) without Fe for 3, 6, or 12 d.”


These abbreviations were used correctly elsewhere in the Article; the conclusions are therefore not affected by these changes.


This has now been corrected in the PDF and HTML versions of the Article.
