Summary

This is simply a correction notice fixing a figure error in a previously published study, it doesn't contain new findings itself. The original research identified a microbe found living on plastic waste that can help remove pollution (nitrogen compounds) from wastewater even when microplastics are present, which could be useful for improving water treatment as plastic pollution continues to grow. Since this update only corrects a technical mistake, it doesn't change the study's overall conclusions.
