Abstract excerpt

Soybean seeds contain three lipoxygenase isozymes. The functions of these lipoxygenase isozymes in n-hexanal generation were investigated by using mutant lines which lack two or three isozymes. In the presence of linoleic acid, the level of n-hexanal produced was highest in the lipoxygenase-1, -3...
