Publisher's Note: Error in the Discussion

Posted by PLOS_ONE_Group on 13 Aug 2013 at 22:12 GMT

The following sentence in the Discussion section is incorrect:
"We tested if scrib affects Wts levels and found that loss of scrib leads to accumulation of Wts, whereas loss of scrib and ft together affects the stability of Wts similar to the loss of ft (Fig. 6), suggesting that scrib is genetically required for the mechanisms through which Ft regulates Wts levels and stability."

The correct sentence is:
"We tested if scrib affects Wts levels and found that loss of scrib alone and loss of scrib and ft together leads to accumulation of Wts (Fig. 6). It is notable that this effect on Wts accumulation is seen in strong allelic combinations of scrib (ftfd/ft422; scrib2/scrib3) (Fig.6). Together, these data suggest that scrib is genetically required for the mechanisms through which Ft regulates Wts levels and stability."
