Abstract
The authors regret that there was an error in the illustration of the results of the total protein assay, resulting in incorrect representations of this variable in Figs. 2 h, 3, Table 2 and Supplementary data in the published version of the paper. These errors have now been corrected and the corrections to the relevant discussion points are noted below. The overall conclusions and outcomes of the study are however unchanged despite this error. Table 2: Mechanical stress, acute hypoxia, chronic dry hypoxia and chronic moist hypoxia pre-treatments increased total protein relative to the handling control at the timepoints indicated. 3.3. Cross tolerance hypothesis: The start of the second paragraph should read: “More specifically, the non-thermal, non-gas mechanical stress pre-treatment was associated with an increase in total protein concentration, HSP70 and sorbitol (Table 1; Fig. S1h, i, m).” 3.6. Principal components analysis: Factor 1 explains 41.83% of the variance, and factor 2 explains 23.32% (see Fig. 3). According to the revised PCA, total protein did not change in response to low temperatures. The authors would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused.
