This Article contains errors.

In Figure 1a the image for 2 μM sirtinol is a duplication of the image for 1 μM.

In addition, the legend for Figure 1,

“(a) Sirtinol hinders plant growth in a dose dependent manner. Wild type seedlings were grown vertically on half MS media containing 0.01 μM, 0.1 μM, 1 μM, 2 μM, 5 μM, and 10 μM sirtinol. Phenotype was observed at 2 dag. Scale bar: 1 mm. (b) Sirtinol leads to defective SAM and RAM. Seedlings (at 2 dag) were visualized under stereomicroscope to study the effect of sirtinol (10 μM). Scale bar: 200 μm. Black arrows indicate accumulation of starch granules (Scale bar: 10 μm).”

should read:

(c,d) Sirtinol leads to defective RAM. Seedlings (at 2 dag) were visualized under stereomicroscope to study the effect of sirtinol (10 μM). Black arrows indicate SAM (b) and the accumulation of starch granules in root (d). Scale bar: 200 μm in (b-c); 10 μm in (d).”

The correct Figure 1 and its accompanying legend appear below.

Sirtinol affects shoot and root development in a dose-dependent manner. (a) Sirtinol hinders plant growth in a dose dependent manner. Wild type seedlings were grown vertically on half MS media containing 0.01 μM, 0.1 μM, 1 μM, 2 μM, 5 μM, and 10 μM sirtinol. Phenotype was observed at 2 dag. Scale bar: 1 mm. (b) Sirtinol leads to defective SAM. Seedlings (at 2 dag) were visualized under stereomicroscope to study the effect of sirtinol (10 μM). (c,d) Sirtinol leads to defective RAM. Seedlings (at 2 dag) were visualized under stereomicroscope to study the effect of sirtinol (10 μM). Black arrows indicate SAM (b) and the accumulation of starch granules in root (d). Scale bar: 200 μm in (b,c); 10 μm in (d).

Furthermore, in the legend for Supplementary Figure S2,

“(c) Sirtinol affects LR development of wild type, in a manner different to IAA but similar to 2,4-D. To analyze the LR growth pattern, 5days old wild type seedlings were transferred on sirtinol (5 μM), IAA (1 μM) and 2,4-D (1 μM) containing half MS medium and LR growth was observed at 1, 3 and 5 dat. Scale bar 1 mm.”

should read:

“(b) Sirtinol affects LR development of wild type, in a manner different to IAA but similar to 2,4-D. To analyze the LR growth pattern, 5days old wild type seedlings were transferred on sirtinol (5 μM), IAA (1 μM) and 2,4-D (1 μM) containing half MS medium and LR growth was observed at 1, 3 and 5 dat. Scale bar 1 mm.”

Finally, there are typographical errors in the Primer Names for Sl. No. 11, 12, 31 and 32 in Supplementary Table S2. The correct version of Supplementary Table S2 appears below as Table 1.
