Regulating pathway for bacterial diversities toward improved ecological benefits of thiencarbazone-methyl·isoxaflutole application: A field experiment.

Herbicide abuse has a significantly negative impact on soil microflora and further influences the ecological benefit. The regulating measures and corresponding mechanisms mitigating the decreased bacterial diversity due to herbicide use have rarely been studied. A field experiment containing the application gradient of an efficient maize herbicide thiencarbazone-methyl·isoxaflutole was performed.

Isolation and identification of the Raoultella ornithinolytica-ZK4 degrading pyrethroid pesticides within soil sediment from an abandoned pesticide plant.

We examined how Raoultella ornithinolytica-ZK4 degraded pyrethroid pesticides within soil sediment from an abandoned pesticide plant. Lambda-cypermethrin and deltamethrin are two pyrethroid insecticides with high insecticidal activity and a wide range of applications. However, their increased use has raised concerns regarding toxicity and accumulation.

Screening and Genome Sequencing of Deltamethrin-Degrading Bacterium ZJ6.

Deltamethrin is a pyrethroid insecticide with high insecticidal activity and a wide range of applications. However, with the increased amount and scope of its application, the accumulated toxicity of deltamethrin has gradually raised concerns. In this study, a bacterium strain, which used deltamethrin as its sole carbon source and was named ZJ6 (Lysinibacillus sp.
