After publication of this article [1], errors were identified in Figs 1, 5, and S7.

In the originally published Figs 1E and 5A:

• In the Gonadal Sheath column of Fig 1E, the Pcasy-1c::GFP panel is incorrect and is a duplicate of the Pcasy-1b::GFP panel.
• The PGABA::mCherry panel in the first column of Fig 5A contains a movement artifact.
• The lower Pcasy-1b::GFP and associated PGABA::mCherry and Merge panels, and the lower Pcasy-1c::GFP panel and the associated PGABA::mCherry and Merge panels of Fig 5A, were incorrectly switched with each other during figure compilation and are therefore incorrectly placed and labeled in the originally published Fig 5A.

With this Correction, the first author provides revised Figs 1 and 5 including the correct image for the Pcasy-1c::GFP panel of Fig 1E from the original experiments.

Regarding the PGABA::mCherry panel in the first column of Fig 5A, the first author stated that at approximately z-stack position #7, the worm underwent a slight movement, creating the impression of two cell bodies in the maximum intensity projection (MIP) of all stacks. With this Correction, the PGABA::mCherry, Pcasy-1a::GFP and Merge panels are replaced with a reduced number of images of the same image stack from after the movement occurred, to remove this artifact present in the merged image used in the published panel. Based on the explanation and underlying image data provided, which is supportive of the revised figure, PLOS considers this concern resolved.

The first author confirms that the same images used to represent the Pcasy-1b::GFP and Pcasy-1c::GFP panels in the Ventral Nerve Cord column of Fig 1E are also used in the lower part of Fig 5A (now correctly aligned in the revised Fig 5) and that the images correctly represent the labeled conditions in each revised figure. This is also reflected in the updated figure legend for Fig 1.

In both S7A and S7C Figs, one additional WT sample was incorrectly included during the preparation of the bar graphs, resulting in incorrect raw WT data and subsequently also casy-1 data, which are normalized to WT data. The correct number of WT samples in S7A Fig is 17, and in S7C Fig is 13. The corresponding author confirmed that the changes in S7A and S7C Figs do not change the significance of the results presented. With this Correction, they provide the corrected bar graphs in a revised S7 Fig.

The first and corresponding authors have shared the original images underlying all panels in Figs 1, 2, 5, S2, and S7 in S1-5 Files and the individual-level quantitative data underlying the updated Figs 1 and S7 are provided in S6–7 Files. The first author stated that all other underlying data are available and can be provided upon request.

With this Correction the PLOS Genetics Editors inform readers that there was a potential competing interest between the authors and one or more people involved in peer review. After reviewing this matter PLOS concluded that the article’s publication is supported based on expert input that was not affected by the concern. We regret that the issues were not addressed prior to the article’s publication.
