Article Synopsis
- - The Pichavaram mangrove forest was designated as a wetland of International Importance in April 2022, but is facing threats from harmful agrochemical run-off during monsoon, impacting microbial diversity.
- - A study was conducted to identify local microbial consortia capable of degrading harmful xenobiotic compounds like fluorobenzoate, furfural, and steroids, utilizing a metagenomic dataset from the forest soil.
- - Key findings revealed specific bacteria, such as Marinobacter and Methyloceanibacter, that can break down fluorobenzoate, while different microbes like Afipia and Nitrosopumilus sp. were found to degrade furfural, and multiple bacteria from the phylum
