In volume 46, issue 1, p. 353–361, the estimates of heritability for fumonisin concentration and Fusarium ear rot in the NC3003 B104 recombinant inbred population were computed incorrectly. The corrected estimates of heritability on an entry mean basis are 0.88 (SE 5 0.03) for fumonisin concentration and 0.86 (SE 5 0.03) for ear rot. The corrected estimates of heritability on a plot basis are 0.58 (SE 5 0.06) for fumonisin concentration and 0.55 (SE 5 0.07) for ear rot. The corrected estimate of heritability on an individual plant basis for ear rot is 0.22 (SE 5 0.03). The corrected estimate of the relative efficiency of indirect selection is 0.85. All of the corrected parameter estimates are higher than the original estimates reported, and the changes do not affect our conclusions.
