    Notes: Abstract  Reducing the linolenic acid (18 : 3ω  3,6,9) concentration of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] oil may lessen the need for chemical hydrogenation and enhance flavor stability. Soybean genotypes A5 and A23 have reduced linolenic acid concentration compared with current cultivars. Seed linolenic acid is synthesized primarily by the ω-3 fatty acid desaturase located in the microsomes. The objective of this research was to study whether this enzyme has a role in reducing the fatty acid levels in the soybean genotypes A5 and A23. DNA from A5 and A23 was analyzed by gel-blot hybridization with a cDNA encoding the ω-3 fatty acid desaturase. A5 and lines selected from it have a DNA fragment missing compared to A23 and lines with normal linolenic acid concentration. Seventy F4:5 lines from a population segregating for linolenic acid concentration were scored for presence or absence of the fragment. The absence of the fragment was significantly (P?0.0001) associated with a reduced linolenic acid level and accounted for 67% of the variation for linolenic acid in the population. These results suggest that the reduced linolenic acid concentration in A5 was at least partially the result of a full or partial deletion of a microsomal ω-3 desaturase gene. No DNA polymorphisms were found for the desaturase gene in A23, so no mutations could be studied in this line.

    Notes: The presence of significant denitrification activity in an aerobic toluene-treating biofilter was demonstrated under batch and flow-through conditions. N2O concentrations of 9.2 ppmv were produced by denitrifying bacteria in the presence of 15% acetylene, in a flow-through system with a bulk gas phase O2 concentration of 〉17%. The carbon source for denitrification was not toluene but a byproduct or metabolite of toluene catabolism. Denitrification conditions were successfully used for the reduction of 60 ppmv nitric oxide to 15 ppmv at a flow rate of 3 L min-1 (EBRT of 3 min) in a fully aerated, 17% v/v O2 (superficially aerobic) biofilter. Higher NO removal efficiency (97%) was obtained by increasing the toluene supply to the biofilter. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biotechnol Bioeng 58:408-415, 1998.
