Abstract: A highly eff ;ective phenanthrene (PHE)-degrading co-culture containing Rhodococcus sp. WB9 and Mycobacterium sp. WY10 was constructed and completely degraded 100 mg L-1 PHE within 36 h, showing improved degradation rate compared to their monocultures.… read more here.

Abstract: &NA; Research into the biodegradation of soil contaminants has rarely addressed the consequences of predator–prey interactions. Here, we investigated the joint effect of predation and dispersal networks on contaminant degradation by linking spatial abundances of… read more here.
