Correction: Multilocus Detection of Wolf x Dog Hybridization in Italy, and Guidelines for Marker Selection

In the Funding section, the number of an additional grant from the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague is incorrectly omitted from the Funding statement. The Funding statement should read: ‘‘This project was supported by grants from the Italian Ministry of Environment (MATTM), the Italian Institute for Environmental Protection and Research (ISPRA), the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague (IGA FTZ CZU 20135107 and 511120/1312/ 3108) and the International Visegrad Fund. The funders had no role in study design, data collection and analysis, decision to publish, or preparation of the manuscript.’’ Figure 2 is incorrect. The authors have provided a corrected version here.
