An error was made to the figure caption for figure 1 within this article, for which the authors and publisher apologise. The figure caption reads:

Fig. 1: Mean (± s.e.m.) larval counts of A. lumbricoides and A. suum in C57BL/6J mice – relatively susceptible strain – and CBA/Ca mice – a relatively resistant strain – for both the liver and the lungs. The red line are the counts for A. lumbricoides and the gray line are the counts for A. suum A: Liver counts of CBA/Ca B: Liver counts of C57BL/6J C: Lung counts of CBA/Ca D: Lung counts C57BL/6J

However panels A & B and panels C & D have been mislabelled, the caption should therefore read:

Fig. 1: Mean (± s.e.m.) larval counts of A. lumbricoides and A. suum in C57BL/6J mice – a relatively susceptible strain – and CBA/Ca mice – a relatively resistant strain – for both the liver and the lungs. The red line are the counts for A. lumbricoides and the gray line are the counts for A. suum A: Liver counts of C57BL/6J B: Liver counts of CBA/Ca C: Lung counts of C57BL/6J D: Lung counts CBA/Ca
