The original published version of this article has some imprecisions in the coordinates for the forward and reverse primers in 16S rDNA molecule, “16S rDNA Libraries” of the “Materials and Methods” section (Page no. 76). The correct version is presented below:

The seven forward primers used in this work, V3-341F2, V3-341F4, V3-341F7, V3-341F8, V3-341F9, V3-341F18, and V3-341F49 (complementary to positions 340–356), and reverse V3-518R primer (complementary to positions 517–533) have already been reported [42].
