In the original published version of the article, the description of the fixed-effect predictor Inoculum Complexity presented in the Methods was incorrect. The incorrect description given was: “single fungal genus, multiple fungal genera, or whole soil inoculum”. The correct description is: “single fungal species, multiple fungal species, or whole soil inoculum”. The error does not affect any of the results presented in the paper. The correction has been made to the HTML and PDF versions of the paper.
