In the original publication of this article, we wrote "Although the allele prevalence of this V311A NHLRC2 mutation in the registered Angus cattle population was only 16% at the time, eleven of 13 consecutive cases with NTD related lesions were homozygous for the NHLRC2 mutation, demonstrating a causal association (Denholm et al., 2015)."
In fact, Denholm et al. (2015) stated that the allele prevalence in the registered Angus cattle population in Australia in which the eleven consecutive NTD cases were observed was 7% at the time. (Correlation between the detected NHLRC2 mutation and the observed NTD related phenotypes is higher at the lower (corrected) allele prevalence value.)
