In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Table 1 and Table 7 as published. The corrected tables appear below. In Table 1 for the 16S rRNA partial amplification, a different combination of the cited primers was used. Regarding the dnaK primer sequences, a formatting oversight resulted in identical representations for forward and reverse primers. Target genes, primers, thermal conditions, and reagent protocol used in the PCR assays for hemoplasmas based on the 16S rRNA, 23S rRNA, RNAse P, and dnaK genes. In Table 7 the statistical analysis was calculated based on the total sampled animals. However, DNA samples from three animals failed to amplify both of the tested housekeeping genes and were consequently excluded from hemoplasma molecular screening, as explained in the Materials and Methods and Results sections. Although the significance of the tested variables did not change, the statistical analysis was corrected. The corrected table appears below. Statistical analysis comparing the occurrence of hemotropic Mycoplasma sp. in sampled tapirs and outcomes (gender, sampling location, and age). +, Number of positive animals; n, number of samples; 95% CI, 95% confidence interval; OR, odds ratio. p-values < 0.05 were considered statically significant and are highlighted in bold. The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
