The original publication of this article included several typographical errors which affected the accuracy of several equations. These errors have been corrected in the article and the corrected equations are also provided below:

Equation 9: (9) $$A=a_0+a_{1}d\equiv a_1(d_{\mathit{eff}}+d),\hspace{1em}\frac{a_0}{a_1}\equiv d_{\mathit{eff}}.$$(9)

Equation 19: (19) $$\begin{array}{c}\text{Mouse:} a_0=3.24\times {10}^{-8}/\mathrm{h}, a_1=2.94\times {10}^{-5}/\mathrm{Gy},\\ {\mathrm{b}}_0=2.94\times {10}^{-3}/\mathrm{h},\\ \text{Fruit} \text{Fly:} a_0=1.47\times {10}^{-5}/\mathrm{h}, a_1=1.43\times {10}^{-2}/\mathrm{Gy},\\ {\mathrm{b}}_0=3.54\times {10}^{-3}/\mathrm{h},\end{array}$$(19)

Equation 21: (21) $$\begin{array}{c}\text{Mouse:}\hspace{1em}{F}_s=\frac{a_0}{b_0}=1.11\times {10}^{-5}/\mathrm{locus},\\ \text{Fruit} \text{Fly:}\hspace{1em}{F}_s=\frac{a_0}{b_0}=0.83\times {10}^{-5}/\mathrm{locus}.\\ \end{array}$$(21)

Equation 22: (22) $$\begin{array}{c} \frac{a_1(\text{Fruit} \text{Fly})}{a_1(\text{Mouse})}=\frac{1.43\times {10}^{-2}/\mathrm{h}}{2.94\times {10}^{-5}/\mathrm{h}}=486 \text{loci},\\ \frac{a_0(\text{Fruit} \text{Fly})}{a_0(\text{Mouse})}=\frac{1.47\times {10}^{-5}/\mathrm{h}}{3.24\times {10}^{-8}/\mathrm{h}}=454 \text{loci}.\end{array}$$(22)

Equation 30: (30) $$\begin{array}{c}\text{Human:}\hspace{1em}{d}_{\mathit{eff}}=0.47-4.7\times {10}^{-3}\mathrm{G}\mathrm{y}/\mathrm{h},\\ \mathrm{C}\mathrm{f}:\text{Mouse:}\hspace{1em} d_{\mathit{eff}}=1.11\times {10}^{-3}\mathrm{G}\mathrm{y}/\mathrm{h},\\ \text{Fruit} \text{Fly:}\hspace{1em}{d}_{\mathit{eff}}=1.03\times {10}^{-3}\mathrm{G}\mathrm{y}/\mathrm{h}.\end{array}$$(30)
