Genetic Engineering of Oilseeds for Desired Traits

  • Chapter
Genetic Engineering

Part of the book series: Genetic Engineering ((GEPM,volume 19))

Abstract

The beginnings of chemical engineering are usually placed in the last quarter of the nineteenth century (1). In subsequent years there was a great proliferation of patents relating to industrial chemistry. In addition to the production of feed stocks for the fledgling industry, some of these new inventions had a profound effect on the American diet. In particular, the development of hydrogenation of vegetable oils contributed to the widespread use of soybean oil, previously too oxidatively unstable for most food applications, and the development of vegetable oil-based margarine in the second half of the present century (2).
