Tóm tắt

A bacterial strain 1-1 capable of utilizing carbendazim was isolated from carbendazim-treated Qiyang red soils Hunan Province, China. It is gram-negative, rod-shaped, motile with peritrichous flagella, which formed round, smooth, convex and transparent colonies of about 1.1 mm diameter after 3 days of incubation on the isolation and purification medium using carbendazim as the sole carbon and energy sources. The degradation ratios of carbendazim by strain 1-1 were 19.16 and 95.96 in the carbendazim (500 mg/l)-degrading medium and the carbendazim (500 mg/l)-degrading medium supplemented with yeast extract (150 mg/l) within 24 days, respectively. Strain 1-1 was identified as Ralstonia sp. (β-Proteobacteria) based on the results of phenotypic features, G+C mol and phylogenetic analysis of 16S rDNA. Strain 1-1 could become a new bacterial resource for biodegrading carbendazim and might play a bioremediation role for soils contaminated by carbendazim.
