The authors would like to correct the omission of a reference in the first introductory paragraph of the initial publication of this article. The reference has been included in the following sentence:
However, for both lineages, the acquisition of the SCCmec element conferring methicillin resistance and the presence of mutations in gyrA and grlA conferring fluoroquinolone resistance are considered to be major contributors to the success of these epidemic lineages (Horváth et al. 2012; Knight et al. 2012; McAdam et al. 2012; Holden et al. 2013).
The previously omitted reference is:
Horváth A, Dobay O, Kardos S, Ghidán Á, Tóth Á, Pászti J, Ungvári E, Horváth P, Nagy K, Zissman S, et al. 2012. Varying fitness cost associated with resistance to fluoroquinolones governs clonal dynamic of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis 31: 2029–2036.
The authors apologize for this omission, which has been corrected online.
