Article Synopsis
- The widespread presence of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in the environment is a major concern due to their potential harmful effects on human health and wildlife.
- Research highlights the role of various microorganisms, including algae, bacteria, and fungi, in biodegrading pharmaceutical compounds, with new techniques like Bio Electrochemical Systems (BES) being explored for enhanced degradation in wastewater.
- Genetic modification of microbial strains is being evaluated to boost their degradation capabilities, while environmental factors such as temperature and pH may influence overall bioremediation efficiency, highlighting a need for further research in this area.
The use of pesticides and the subsequent accumulation of residues in the soil has become a worldwide problem. Organochlorine (OC) pesticides have spread widely in the environment and caused contamination from past agricultural activities. This article reviews the bioremediation of pesticide compounds in soil using microbial enzymes, including the enzymatic degradation pathway and the recent development of enzyme-mediated bioremediation.

These analyses are essential, particularly when the breeding program aims to select lines with great adaptability and stability. Thirty chilli genotypes were evaluated for yield stability under four soilless planting systems viz; fertigation, HydroStock (commercial hydrogel), BioHydrogel (biodegradable hydrogel), and hydroponic to study the influence of genotype by environment interaction.
