It has come to our attention that two references were omitted from this paper. These references should have been cited in the following sentences:
In the RESULTS, sub-section ‘Lipase expression in palms exhibiting various levels of lipase activity’:
Oil palm contains at least two lipase classes, GXSXG and GDSL (unpublished data).
should read:
Oil palm contains at least two lipase classes, GXSXG and GDSL (Nurniwalis et al. 2006, 2015 and unpublished data, respectively).
In the DISCUSSION:
‘The presence of at least two lipase classes in the oil palm, GXSXG and GDSL, was recently confirmed (unpublished data).’
should read:
‘The presence of at least two lipase classes in the oil palm, GXSXG and GDSL, was recently confirmed (Nurniwalis et al. 2006, 2015 and unpublished data, respectively).
