In line 16 of the second paragraph, “three-million-fold” should be replaced by “thirty-million-fold”. This correction strengthens our original conclusions. In addition, some of the information in Fig. 1b was either missing or incorrect. The amended figure is shown here.

Ageing, fitness and neurocognitive function

A. F. Kramer et al.

Nature 400, 418– 419 (1999)

The key to Fig. 1b contained two errors: the second set of (dark-blue) bars represents the “incompatible pre-exercise” responses, and the third set of (light-brown) bars represents the “compatible post-exercise responses”.

Dichromatism in macaque monkeys

A. Onishi et al.

Nature 402, 139– 140 (1999)

The eighth name in the list of authors, Hidehiko Komatsu, was spelt incorrectly. In the reference list, the first author of ref. 12, Jørgensen, A. L., was also spelt incorrectly.

Parasitoid behaviour and Bt plants

T. H. Schuler, R. P. J. Potting, I. Denholm, G. M. Poppy

Nature 400, 825– 826 (1999)

Figure 1b was incorrectly labelled: the bars on both sides should have read “Bt-resistant hosts”.

brief communications is intended to provide a forum for both brief, topical reports of general scientific interest and technical discussion of recently published material of particular interest to non-specialist readers. Priority will be given to contributions that have fewer than 500 words, 10 references and only one figure.
