Insights into the molecular network underlying phytotoxicity and phytoaccumulation of ciprofloxacin.

Ciprofloxacin (CIP) is frequently detected in agricultural soils and can be accumulated by crops, causing phytotoxicities and food safety concerns. However, the molecular basis of its phytotoxicity and phytoaccumulation is hardly known. Here, we analyzed physiological and molecular responses of choysum (Brassica parachinensis) to CIP stress by comparing low CIP accumulation variety (LAV) and high accumulation variety (HAV).

Bioremediation of aniline aerofloat wastewater at extreme conditions using a novel isolate Burkholderia sp. WX-6 immobilized on biochar.

Aniline aerofloat (AAF) is a refractory organic pollutant in floatation wastewater. Little information is currently available on its biodegradation. In this study, a novel AAF-degrading strain named Burkholderia sp.
