There was incorrect information in the second, third and fourth full sentences on page 253 of the orginal publication (‘As is evident…’). They should read as follows:

The lifetime of the fastest alpha component was 0.26 ms and contributed 67% of the total amplitude. The beta component was about 7-fold slower (life time ~1.9 ms) and it was responsible for 32% of the total amplitude. The gamma component was very slow with lifetime of ~7 ms and small, being only 1% of the total amplitude in control leaves. These results are in agreement with those obtained on pea leaves, determined with those obtained on pea leaves, determined with the same method (Toth and Strasser 2005).
