<p>In the original article, there was an error.</p>

<p>A correction has been made to Materials and methods, Strain Construction:</p>
<p>Mutants with P<sub><italic>aprE</italic></sub><italic>-gfp</italic> were constructed by transforming O8G57 genomic DNA (Veening et al., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B1">2008</xref>) into appropriate PS-216 strains.</p>
<p>In the original article, there was a mistake in Table 1, Figure 1, Figure 3, Figure S2, Figure S5, and Figure S7 as published. The genotypic trait P<sub><italic>apre</italic></sub>-<italic>gfp</italic> of the strains BM1142, BM1144, BM1443 and BM1448 was incorrectly stated as being <italic>amyE</italic>::P<sub><italic>aprE</italic></sub><italic>-gfp</italic>.</p>
<p>The authors apologize for these errors and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way.</p>
