説明

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are among the most widely spread pollutants in the environment including the agricultural soil. PAH degradation by indigenous bacteria is an effective and economical means to remove these pollutants from the environment. Here, we report a bacterial consortium (Pdy-1) isolated from paddy rice soil in northern Japan able to degrade polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) at high rates. Pdy-1 was incubated with a mixture of PAH compounds (fluorene, phenanthrene, and pyrene) in Bushnell Haas Medium at a final concentration of 100 mg/L each. PDY-1 degraded 100% of fluorene, 95% of phenanthrene, and 52% of pyrene in 5 days. Phenanthrene and pyrene were completely degraded at 10 d and 15 d, respectively. Cloning of the 16S rRNA gene revealed that the consortium was composed of 40%
