Degradation of chlorinated herbicides by Klebsiella pneumoniae from rhizosphere of rice
It was observed that the strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from rhizosphere of rice, capable of utilizing chlorinated herbicides, such as 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetate, 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetate and 3-chlorobenzoate, as sole source of carbon and energy and confirmed that their degrading a...

Summary: | It was observed that the strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from rhizosphere of rice, capable of utilizing chlorinated herbicides, such as 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetate, 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetate and 3-chlorobenzoate, as sole source of carbon and energy and confirmed that their degrading ability of the herbicides was due to plasmid genes. Characteristics of selected strains such as nitrogenase activity, resistances to antibiotics and heavy metal ion were measured |
