Correction for Demory et al., “Linking Light-Dependent Life History Traits with Population Dynamics for Prochlorococcus and Cyanophage�

The original publication of this paper erroneously included a factor of 2 in the denominator rather than the numerator when representing the state transitions corresponding to intracellular transitions from infection to lysis in the nonlinear population model. As a result, the estimated latent periods were underreported by a factor of 4. The corrected latent period (lcorrected) should be lcorrected 4loriginal. This rescaling does not impact the MCMC procedure, model-data fits, or conclusions. Instead, we find that corrected latent periods are in the range of 14.4 to 15.6 h for phage P-HM2 (rather than 3.6 to 3.9 h, originally) and 9.6 to 10.4 h for phage P-SSP7 (rather than 2.4 to 2.6 h, originally); these corrected values are in fact in closer concordance with estimated average latent periods of ;8 h measured in experiments for phage P-SSP7 (e.g., D. Lindell, J. D. Jaffe,M. L. Coleman, M. E. Futschik, et al., Nature 449:83-86, 2007, https://doi.org/10.1038/ nature06130).
