Author Correction: Gut microbiome composition in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos is shaped by geographic relocation, environmental factors, and obesity (Genome Biology (2019) 20 (219) DOI: 10.1186/s13059-019-1831-z)

Following publication of the original paper [1], an error was reported in the third paragraph in the section "Analysis of GMB composition and its correlates" (page 3 of the PDF). The first sentence of the text should refer to Table 2, but mistakenly refers to Table 1. The sentence should read: "Fungal (ITS1) GMB populations were dominated by Aspergillus proliferans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae in both mainland US-born and Latin American-born groups (Table 2)." As a result Table 2 appears further in the article, after the second reference to Table 2.
