The version of the article originally published states that Monsanto petitioned the USDA for deregulation of two “soybean products with modified oil profiles, one with omega-3 fatty acids for nutrition and the other with enhanced texture and functionality, called high stearic acid soybeans.” The article should have stated that “Monsanto has petitioned for deregulation of Vistive Gold soybeans, with mono-unsaturated fat levels similar to that of olive oil, and saturated fat levels similar to canola oil, which would produce an oil more stable than regular soybean oil at high frying temperatures.” The high stearate soybeans are still in development. The error has been corrected in the HTML and PDF versions of the article.
