There was an error in the plasmid size reported in the article. The article refers to a 56,264-bp plasmid which is incorrect; the correct size is 56,267-bp, as specified in the GenBank record CP003376: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/CP003376.1. The authors apologize for any inconvenience or confusion this may have caused to readers. The phylogenetic analysis reported in the article made use of IncP-1 plasmid sequences identified in GenBank. The relevant GenBank accession numbers of the plasmid sequences used for the genetic distance and phylogenetic analysis are provided below: plasmid GenBank accession number pMAB01 CP003376 BRA100 CP003505 pA81 CP002288 pAKD1 JN106164 pAKD16 JN106167 pAKD33 JN106174 pB3 AJ639924 pB4 AJ431260 pB8 AJ863570 pB10 AJ564903 pHH3414 JQ004408 pJP4 AY365053 pKJK5 AM261282 pTB11 AJ744860 pTP6 AM048832 pUO1 AB063332 QKH54 AM157767 pR751 U67194 pBP136 AB237782 The authors commit to making all the sequences used in this article available for research purposes upon request.
