In the RNA-Seq Pipeline comparison on BL2 subsection of the Evaluation of RNA-Seq pipelines and cross-comparison with microarray subsection of the Results and discussion, there is an error in the third sentence of the fourth paragraph. The correct sentence is: It can be seen that P1(HTSeq) has the largest number of significant genes also found by others (169/287), which is 58.89% of the complete findings.

In Table 3, there are errors in the BL2 values of the Consensus DEGs column. Please see the correct Table 3 here.

In Fig 4, there are errors in the labeling as well as the BL2 values. Please see the correct Fig 4 here.

Shown are two Venn diagrams, one for each dataset (BL2 Fig 4A and RC Fig 4B). The different pipelines used here are: TopHat2 and Cufflinks (T&C), STAR and HTSeq-Count (S&HT), Sailfish (Sa), STAR and RSEM (S&R). The microarray data is not included, because there were close to no significant genes after FDR adjustment.
