In the Figure 4 legend, the text that reads "a=0.07" should read "a=0.025"
In the Discussion section of the article, there were two sections of text that should have been omitted from the article. They are:
undergoes bipolar growth, while the other cell grows monopolarly. One possible explanation of this is to assume that in for3△ cells, the scar of growth somehow helps the establishment of the polarisomes on the tips. In this way the cell that has inherited the scar is approximately symmetrical and follows the standard pattern of growth, while the daughter cell that has no scar is strongly asymmetric in favour of the old end that wins the competition for the substrate through the whole cell cycle.
and
NETO, using mass-spectrometry technology might be a way to find possible candidates for the common substrate . Also dense time-course measurements similar to the one carried in [9] of the other proteins co-localizing on the tips, would allow to determine the presence of other regulatory mechanisms, like negative feedbacks, that could be used to construct a refined mechanistic model of the regulation of polarised growth.
