C. Cayrou, B. Sambe, F. Armougom, D. Raoult, and M. Drancourt, "Molecular Diversity of the Planctomycetes in the Human Gut Microbiota in France and Senegal," APMIS 121, no. 11 (2013): 1082-1090, https://doi.org/10.1111/apm.12087. The above article, published online on 18 April 2013 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the journal Editors-in-Chief, T. Bjarnsholt, P. Ø. Jensen, L. Kruse Jensen; the Scandinavian Societies for Pathology, Medical Microbiology and Immunology; and John Wiley & Sons Ltd. The retraction has been agreed due to concerns raised by third parties. It has come to the attention of the journal that the study did not receive adequate ethical approval for the research on human subjects conducted on the "Senegalese individual" group. Accordingly, the article is retracted. The authors have been informed of the decision of retraction but unavailable for a final confirmation.
