Book Interaction of Herbicides and Soil Microorganisms

Download or read book Interaction of Herbicides and Soil Microorganisms written by Boyce Thompson Institute for Plant Research and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The introduction of microorganisms with specific degradative capacities into the soil was shown to be a possible means of ridding the soil of contaminating chemicals. An investigation of the interactions of soil microorganisms and several groups of herbicidal compounds, primarily chlorinated derivatives, was made. In pure culture and in soils the addition of 2,3,5,6-tetrachloroterephthalate (DCPA) had little effect upon bacterial growth, and several microorganisms appeared to use the herbicide as a carbon source. The encouragement of the soil microflora by the addition of nutrient broths resulted in a reduction of toxicity to plants of a number of herbicides. Isopropyl N-phenylcarbamate (IPC) degrading organisms, when added to soil, accelerated the degradation of IPC and related compounds. A membrane 'biologicalilter' device for reducing waterborne biodegradable pollutants was also demonstrated using these organisms.

Book Bioremediation of Agricultural Soils

Download or read book Bioremediation of Agricultural Soils written by Juan C. Sanchez-Hernandez and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-03-14 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quality of agricultural soils are always under threat from chemical contaminants, which ultimately affect the productivity and safety of crops. Besides agrochemicals, a new generation of substances invades the soil through irrigation with reclaimed wastewater and pollutants of organic origin such as sewage sludge or cattle manure. Emerging pollutants such as pharmaceuticals, nanomaterials and microplastics are now present in agricultural soils, but the understanding of their impact on soil quality is still limited. With focus on in situ bioremediation, this book provides an exhaustive analysis of the current biological methodologies for recovering polluted agricultural soils as well as monitoring the effectiveness of bioremediation.

Book Pollution Control of Pesticides and Insecticides in SOIL by MICROBES

Download or read book Pollution Control of Pesticides and Insecticides in SOIL by MICROBES written by Amuldass Mohan Raj and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pesticides and its derivatives have found their way into every branch of science. They possess a variety of pharmacological, agrochemical and industrial applications. A lot of pesticide derivatives have insecticidal, anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-microbial, fungicidal and herbicidal properties. The biological and chemical properties of pesticide derivatives are depending on its structure, especially the structural configuration of the substituted groups. Though the structural activity relationship has been established very earlier, there is not much pesticide report exclusively concerning the microbial degradation.Information currently available on the microbial degradation of pesticides is reviewed with particular respect to microorganisms responsible for the biochemical reactions involved, and to the main degradation products identified. This current research study includes the fate of pesticides in soil and the significance of microbial communities in bio-degradation; pesticide effects on soil microorganisms, methods for isolating pesticide degrading microorganisms from the soil environment; biochemical reactions involved in pesticide degradation by microbes...
