Author Correction: Yolk sac macrophage progenitors traffic to the embryo during defined stages of development

Area of Science:

• Scientific illustration
• Data visualization
• Research integrity

Background:

• Accurate representation of experimental data is crucial for scientific reproducibility.
• Figures in scientific publications must precisely reflect the findings.
• Errors in figures can lead to misinterpretation of research results.

Purpose of the Study:

• To acknowledge and rectify errors in Figures 5 and 6.
• To provide corrected figure images to the scientific community.
• To maintain the integrity and accuracy of the published research.

Main Methods:

• Identification of specific image misplacements in Figures 5f and 6d.
• Correction of figure panels by replacing erroneous images with the accurate ones.
• Issuance of an Author Correction to accompany the original article.

Main Results:

• Figure 5f: The 'E12.5 tail' image was replaced with a duplicate of 'E12.5 trunk'.
• Figure 6d: The 'E9.5/OH-TAM E8.5, embryo' image was replaced with a duplicate from Fig. 6b.
• Corrected versions of Figures 5 and 6 are now available.

Conclusions:

• The identified errors in figures have been corrected.
• The Author Correction ensures accurate data presentation.
• This action upholds the standards of scientific publishing.
