Kinetics of Phenol Biodegradation by Heavy Metal Tolerant Rhizobacteria Glutamicibacter nicotianae MSSRFPD35 From Distillery Effluent Contaminated Soils.

ABSTRACT: Biodegradation of phenol using bacteria is recognized as an efficient, environmentally friendly and cost-effective approach for reducing phenol pollutants compared to the current conventional physicochemical processes adopted. A potential phenol degrading bacterial strain Glutamicibacter nicotianae MSSRFPD35 was isolated and identified from Canna indica rhizosphere grown in distillery effluent contaminated sites. It showed high phenol degrading efficiency up to 1117 mg L^-1 within 60 h by the secretion of catechol 1,2-dioxygenase via ortho intradial pathway. The strain MSSRFPD35 possess both the catechol 1,2 dioxygenase and catechol 2,3 dioxygenase coding genes that drive the ortho and meta pathways, but the enzymatic assay revealed that the strain cleaves catechol via ortho pathway. Haldane's kinetic method was well fit to exponential growth data and the following kinetic parameter was obtained: μ^∗ = 0.574 h^-1, K _i = 268.1, K _s = 20.29 mg L^-1. The true μ_max and S _m were calculated as 0.37 h^-1 and 73.76 mg L^-1, respectively. The Haldane's constant values were similar to earlier studies and healthy fitness depicted in correlation coefficient value R ² of 0.98. Phenol degrading kinetic's was predicted using Haldane's model as q _max 0.983, K _i' 517.5 and K _s' 9.152. Further, MSSRFPD35 was capable of utilizing different monocyclic and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and to degrade phenol in the presence of different heavy metals. This study for the first time reports high phenol degrading efficiency of G. nicotianae MSSRFPD35 in the presence of toxic heavy metals. Thus, the strain G. nicotianae MSSRFPD35 can be exploited for the bioremediation of phenol and its derivatives polluted environments, co-contaminated with heavy metals.

Project description:Drought stress adversely affects plant health and productivity. Recently, drought-resistant bacterial isolates are used to combat drought resistance in crops. In this in vitro study, 20 bacterial isolates were isolated from harsh soil; their drought tolerance was evaluated using four concentrations of polyethylene glycol (PEG) 6000. The two most efficient isolates (DS4 and DS9) were selected and identified using 16S rRNA genetic sequencing. They were registered in the NCBI database and deposited under accession numbers MW916285 and MW916307 for Bacillus cereus (DS4) and Bacillus albus (DS9), respectively. These isolates were screened for plant growth-promoting properties compared to non-stressed conditions. Biochemical parameters; Proline, salicylic acid, gibberellic acid (GA), indole acetic acid (IAA), antioxidant activity, and antioxidant enzymes were measured under the same conditions, and in vitro seed germination was tested under stress conditions and inoculation with selected isolates. The results showed that under the harsh conditions of PEG6000, DS4 produced the highest amount of IAA of 1.61 µg/ml, followed by DS9 with 0.9 µg/ml. The highest amount of GA (49.95 µg/ml) was produced by DS9. On the other hand, the highest amount of siderophore was produced from DS4 isolate followed by DS9. Additionally, DS4 isolate recorded the highest exopolysaccharide (EPS) content of 3.4 mg/ml under PEG (-1.2 MPa) followed by DS9. The antioxidant activity increased in PEG concentrations depending manner, and the activity of the antioxidant enzymes increased, as catalase (CAT) recorded the highest activity in DS4 with an amount of 1.095 mg/ml. additionally, an increase in biofilm formation was observed under drought conditions. The isolated mixture protected the plant from the harmful effects of drought and showed an increase in the measured variables. Under unstressed conditions, the highest rates of emulsification index (EI 24%) were obtained for DS4 and DS9, at 14.92 and 11.54, respectively, and decreased under stress. The highest values of germination, total seedling length, and vigor index were obtained upon inoculation with the combination of two strains, and were 100%, 4.10 cm, and 410, respectively. Therefore, two strains combination is an effective vaccine capable of developing and improving drought tolerance in dryland plants.

Project description:Six chlorpyrifos-degrading bacteria were isolated from an Australian soil and compared by biochemical and molecular methods. The isolates were indistinguishable, and one (strain B-14) was selected for further analysis. This strain showed greatest similarity to members of the order Enterobacteriales and was closest to members of the Enterobacter asburiae group. The ability of the strain to mineralize chlorpyrifos was investigated under different culture conditions, and the strain utilized chlorpyrifos as the sole source of carbon and phosphorus. Studies with ring or uniformly labeled [(14)C]chlorpyrifos in liquid culture demonstrated that the isolate hydrolyzed chlorpyrifos to diethylthiophospshate (DETP) and 3, 5, 6-trichloro-2-pyridinol, and utilized DETP for growth and energy. The isolate was found to possess mono- and diphosphatase activities along with a phosphotriesterase activity. Addition of other sources of carbon (glucose and succinate) resulted in slowing down of the initial rate of degradation of chlorpyrifos. The isolate degraded the DETP-containing organophosphates parathion, diazinon, coumaphos, and isazofos when provided as the sole source of carbon and phosphorus, but not fenamiphos, fonofos, ethoprop, and cadusafos, which have different side chains. Studies of the molecular basis of degradation suggested that the degrading ability could be polygenic and chromosome based. Further studies revealed that the strain possessed a novel phosphotriesterase enzyme system, as the gene coding for this enzyme had a different sequence from the widely studied organophosphate-degrading gene (opd). The addition of strain B-14 (10(6) cells g(-1)) to soil with a low indigenous population of chlorpyrifos-degrading bacteria treated with 35 mg of chlorpyrifos kg(-1) resulted in a higher degradation rate than was observed in noninoculated soils. These results highlight the potential of this bacterium to be used in the cleanup of contaminated pesticide waste in the environment.
