GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Author corrections typically address errors in data, figures or methodology that authors or editors identify after publication, which can affect how the original findings are interpreted. Without the specific correction details, it is unclear how substantially this changes the paper's conclusions about bacterial anti-phage chemical defences.
