Metagenomic insights into bacterial communities' structures in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons degrading consortia

Avani Bharatkumar Patel et al.

Summary: The study focused on eight bacterial consortia developed from PAH-contaminated sediments, with consortium ACDMRT-8 showing efficient degradation of naphthalene, phenanthrene, fluoranthene, and pyrene within a short period. While Proteobacteria dominated the bacterial communities in all consortia, the diversity varied based on enrichment conditions and types of PAHs provided. Pseudomonas species were found to be abundant in four consortia, facilitating degradation of all four PAHs.
