Abstract
Microbial degradation is a highly efficient and reliable approach for mitigating the contamination of sulfonylurea herbicides, such as chlorimuron-ethyl, in soil and water. In this study, we aimed to assess whether Kj-mhpC plays a pivotal role in the degradation of chlorimuron-ethyl. Kj-mhpC enzyme purified via prokaryotic expression exhibited the highest catalytic activity for chlorimuron-ethyl at 35 °C and pH 7. Bioinformatic analysis and three-dimensional homologous modeling of Kj-mhpC were conducted. Additionally, the presence of Mg+ and Cu2+ ions partially inhibited but Pb2+ ions completely inhibited the enzymatic activity of Kj-mhpC. LC/MS revealed that Kj-mhpC hydrolyzes the ester bond of chlorimuron-ethyl, resulting in the formation of 2-(4-chloro-6-methoxypyrimidine-2-amidoformamidesulfonyl) benzoic acid. Furthermore, the point mutation of serine at position 67 (Ser67) confirmed that it is the key amino acid at the active site for degrading chlorimuron-ethyl. This study enhanced the understanding of how chlorimuron-ethyl is degraded by microorganisms and provided a reference for bioremediation of the environment polluted with chlorimuron-ethyl.

LAM2020 and biodegradation pathway revealed by multiomics analysis. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 443:130197. [PMID: 36272371 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.130197] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2022] [Revised: 09/24/2022] [Accepted: 10/13/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
The widespread use of the herbicide chlorimuron-methyl is hazard to rotational crops and causes soil degradation problems. Biodegradation is considered a promising way for removing herbicide residues from the environment. Here, a new isolated strain, Cedecea sp. LAM2020, enabled complete degradation of 100 mg/L chlorimuron-methyl within five days. Transcriptome analysis revealed that ABC transporters, atrazine degradation and purine metabolism were enriched in the KEGG pathway. Integrating GO and KEGG classification with related reports, we predict that carboxylesterases are involved in the biodegradation of chlorimuron-methyl by LAM2020. Heterologous expression of the carboxylesterase gene carH showed 26.67% degradation of 50 mg/L chlorimuron-methyl within 6 h. The intracellular potential biological response and extracellular degradation process of chlorimuron-ethyl were analyzed by the nontarget metabolomic and mass spectrometry respectively, and the biodegradation characteristics and complete mineralization pathway was revealed. The cleavage of the sulfonylurea bridge and the ester bond achieved the first step in the degradation of chlorimuron-methyl. Together, these results reveal the presence of acidolysis and enzymatic degradation of chlorimuron-methyl by strain LAM2020. Hydroponic corn experiment showed that the addition of strain LAM2020 alleviated the toxic effects of chlorimuron-ethyl on the plants. Collectively, strain LAM2020 may be a promising microbial agent for plants chlorimuron-ethyl detoxification and soil biofertilizer.

Abstract
Bioaugmentation is a promising alternative in soil remediation. One challenge of bioaugmentation is that exogenous pollutant-degrading microbes added to soil cannot establish enough biomass to eliminate pollutants. Considering that methanotrophs have a growth advantage in the presence of methane, we hypothesize that genetically engineered methanotrophs could degrade contaminants efficiently in soil with methane. Here, methanotroph Methylomonas sp. LW13, herbicide bensulfuron-methyl (BSM), and two kinds of soil were chosen to confirm this hypothesis. The unmarked gene knock-in method was first developed for strain LW13. Then, BSM hydrolase encoding gene sulE was inserted into the chromosome of strain LW13, conferring it BSM-degrading ability. After inoculation, the cell amount of strain LW13-sulE in soil raised considerably (over 100 fold in 9 days) with methane provision; meanwhile, >90% of BSM in soil was degraded. This study provides a proof of the concept that genetically engineered methanotroph is a potential platform for soil remediation.

Abstract
Conventional agricultural practices, such as rice plantations, often contaminate the soil and water with xenobiotics. Here we evaluated the microbiota composition in experimental rice planting with a record of prolonged pesticide use, using 16S and 18S rRNA amplicon sequencing. We investigated four components of a complete agricultural system: affluent water (A), rice rhizosphere soil (R), sediment from a storage pond (S), and effluent (E) water (drained from the storage pond). Despite the short spatial distance between our sites, the beta diversity analysis of bacterial communities showed two well-defined clusters, separating the water and sediment/rhizosphere samples; rhizosphere and sediment were richer while the effluent was less diverse. Overall, the site with the highest evenness was the rhizosphere. Unlike the bacterial communities, Shannon diversity of microeukaryotes was significantly different between A and E. The effluent presented the lowest values for all ecological indexes tested and differed significantly from all sampled sites, except on evenness. When mapped the metabolic pathways, genes corresponding to the degradation of aromatic compounds, including genes related to pesticide degradation, were identified. The most abundant genes were related to the degradation of benzoate. Our results indicate that the effluent is a selective environment for fungi. Interestingly, the overall fungal diversity was higher in the affluent, the water that reached the system before pesticide application, and where the prokaryotic diversity was the lowest. The affluent and effluent seem to have the lowest environmental quality, given the presence of bacteria genera previously recorded in environments with high concentrations of pesticide residues. The microbiota, environmental characteristics, and pesticide residues should be further studied and try to elucidate the potential for pesticide degradation by natural consortia. Thus, extensive comparative studies are needed to clarify the microbial composition, diversity, and functioning of rice cultivation environments, and how pesticide use changes may reflect differences in microbial structure.

Abstract
Microbial degradation is considered to be the most acceptable method for degradation of chlorimuron-ethyl, a typical long-term residual sulfonylurea herbicide, but the underlying mechanism at the genetic and biochemical levels is unclear. In this work, the genome sequence of the chlorimuron-ethyl-degrading bacterium Rhodococcus erythropolis D310-1 was completed, and the gene clusters responsible for the degradation of chlorimuron-ethyl in D310-1 were predicted. A carboxylesterase gene, carE, suggested to be responsible for carboxylesterase de-esterification, was cloned from D310-1. CarE was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 and purified to homogeneity. The active site of the chlorimuron-ethyl-degrading enzyme CarE and the biochemical activities of CarE were elucidated. The results demonstrated that CarE is involved in catalyzing the de-esterification of chlorimuron-ethyl. A carE deletion mutant strain, D310-1ΔcarE, was constructed, and the chlorimuron-ethyl degradation rate in the presence of 100 mg L-1 chlorimuron-ethyl within 120 h decreased from 86.5 % (wild-type strain D310-1) to 58.2 % (mutant strain D310-1ΔcarE). Introduction of the plasmid pNit-carE restored the ability of the mutant strain to utilize chlorimuron-ethyl. This study is the first to demonstrate that carboxylesterase can catalyze the de-esterification reaction of chlorimuron-ethyl and provides new insights into the mechanism underlying the degradation of sulfonylurea herbicides and a theoretical basis for the utilization of enzyme resources.

Abstract
Chlorimuron-ethyl is a sulfonylurea herbicide with a long residual period in the field and is toxic to rotational crops. Klebsiella jilinsis 2N3 is a gram-negative bacterium that can rapidly degrade Chlorimuron-ethyl. In this study, the gene expression changes in strain 2N3 during degradation of Chlorimuron-ethyl was analyzed by RNA-Seq. Results showed that 386 genes were up-regulated and 453 genes were down-regulated. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis revealed the highest enrichment ratio in the pathway of sulfur metabolism. On the basis of the functional annotation and gene expression, we predicted that carboxylesterase, monooxygenase, glycosyltransferase, and cytochrome P450 were involved in the metabolism of Chlorimuron-ethyl biodegradation. Results of qRT-PCR showed that the relative mRNA expression levels of these genes were higher in treatment group than those in control group. The cytochrome P450 encoded by Kj-CysJ and the alkanesulfonate monooxygenase encoded by Kj-SsuD were predicted and further experimentally confirmed by gene knockout as the key enzymes in the biodegradation process. Cultured in basal medium containing Chlorimuron-ethyl (5 mg L-1) in 36 h, the strains of ΔKj-CysJ, ΔKj-SsuD, and WT reached the highest OD600 values of 0.308, 0.873, and 1.085, and the highest degradation rates of Chlorimuron-ethyl of 11.83%, 96.21%, and 95.62%, respectively.

Abstract
Chlorimuron-ethyl is a typical long-term residual sulfonylurea herbicide whose long period of residence poses a serious hazard to rotational crops. Microbial degradation is considered to be the most acceptable method for its removal, but the degradation mechanism is not clear. In this work, we investigated gene expression changes during the degradation of chlorimuron-ethyl by an effective chlorimuron-ethyl-degrading bacterium, Rhodococcus erythropolis D310-1. The genes that correspond to this degradation and their mode of action were identified using RNA-Seq and qRT-PCR. The RNA-Seq results revealed that 500 genes were up-regulated during chlorimuron-ethyl degradation by strain D310-1. KEGG annotation showed that the dominant metabolic pathways were "Toluene degradation" and "Aminobenzoate degradation". Combining GO and KEGG classification with the relevant literature, we predicted that cytochrome P-450, carboxylesterase, and monooxygenase were involved in metabolic chlorimuron-ethyl biodegradation and that the enzyme active site and mode of action coincided with the degradation pathway proposed in our previous study. qRT-PCR experiments suggested that the R. erythropolis D310-1 carboxylesterase, cytochrome P-450 and glycosyltransferase genes were the key genes expressed during chlorimuron-ethyl biodegradation. To the best of our knowledge, this report is the first to describe the transcriptome analysis of a Rhodococcus species during the degradation of chlorimuron-ethyl.

Abstract
The prediction of chemical mixture toxicity is a major concern regarding unintentional mixture of pesticides from agricultural lands treated with various such compounds. We focused our work on a mixture of three herbicides commonly applied on maize crops within a fortnight, namely mesotrione (β-triketone), nicosulfuron (sulfonylurea) and S-metolachlor (chloroacetanilide). The metabolic pathways of mesotrione and nicosulfuron were qualitatively and quantitatively determined with a bacterial strain (Bacillus megaterium Mes11). This strain was isolated from an agricultural soil and able to biotransform both these herbicides. Although these pathways were unaffected in the case of binary or ternary herbicide mixtures, kinetics of nicosulfuron disappearance and also of mesotrione and nicosulfuron metabolite formation was strongly modulated. The toxicity of the parent compounds and metabolites was evaluated for individual compounds and mixtures with the standardized Microtox® test. Synergistic interactions were evidenced for all the parent compound mixtures. Synergistic, antagonistic or additive toxicity was obtained depending on the metabolite mixture. Overall, these results emphasize the need to take into account the active ingredient and metabolites all together for the determination of environmental fate and toxicity of pesticide mixtures.

Abstract
Penoxsulam, a new post emergence herbicide is suspected to be toxic to aquatic organisms, crop plants and also to soil microbial community even at low concentrations. Laboratory studies were therefore performed to examine the persistence of, penoxsulam in two different soils at two application rates (0.5 and 1.0 µg g-1). The study revealed that the dissipation followed the first order kinetics with a half life of 3.48 and 3.57 days at 0.5 µg g-1 and 4.1 and 4.17 days at 1.0 µg g-1 fortification rate. Both microbial- and photo-degradation seemed to play a vital role in the dissipation of penoxsulam. The results of LC MS/MS revealed that one minor and five major metabolites were formed during the degradation process of the herbicide and the cleavage of sulfonamide bridge served as the major metabolic pathway.

Abstract
Nicosulfuron is a selective herbicide belonging to the sulfonylurea family, commonly used on maize culture. A bacterial strain SG-1 was isolated from an agricultural soil previously treated with nicosulfuron. This strain was identified as Pseudomonas fluorescens and is able to quantitatively dissipate 77.5% of nicosulfuron (1mM) at 28°C in the presence of glucose within the first day of incubation. Four metabolites were identified among which ASDM (2-(aminosulfonyl)-N,N-dimethyl-3-pyridinecarboxamide) and ADMP (2-amino-4,6-dimethoxypyrimidine) in substantial proportions, corresponding to the hydrolytic sulfonylurea cleavage. Two-phase dissipation kinetics of nicosulfuron by SG-1 were observed at the highest concentrations tested (0.5 and 1mM) due to biosorption. The extend and rate of formulated nicosulfuron transformation were considerably reduced compared to those with the pure active ingredient (appearance of a lag phase, 30% dissipation after 10days of incubation instead of 100% with the pure herbicide) but the same metabolites were observed. The toxicity of metabolites (standardized Microtox® test) showed a 20-fold higher toxicity of ADMP than nicosulfuron. P. fluorescens strain SG-1 was also able to biotransform two other sulfonylureas (metsulfuron-methyl and tribenuron-methyl) with various novel pathways. These results provide new tools for a comprehensive picture of the sulfonylurea environmental fate and toxicity of nicosulfuron in the environment.

Abstract
This study aimed to isolate and characterize bacteria able to use sulfentrazone in the commercial formulation as their sole carbon source. The isolation of the potential sulfentrazone-degrading bacteria was made from soil samples with a recent history of herbicide application and from isolates identified through rDNA sequencing. Subsequently, we assessed the growth of the isolates and their sulfentrazone degradation ability using high-performance liquid chromatography. Twenty-six potential sulfentrazone-degrading bacterial isolates were obtained in pure culture. Through analysis of the rDNA sequences, the predominance of bacterial species of the genus Pseudomonas was found. The isolates presented a differentiated ability of sulfentrazone degradation. The presence of herbicide in the culture medium reduced the log phase of four isolates. Pseudomonas putida, Pseudomonas lutea, Pseudomonas plecoglossicida and three isolates of Pseudomonas sp. showed higher sulfentrazone degradation capacity, which varied from 4 to 15%. This is the first report of the Pseudomonas genre capable of sulfentrazone degradation. The isolates obtained present potential use in bioremediation programs for soil contaminated with sulfentrazone.

Abstract
Chlorimuron-ethyl is a typical long-term residual sulfonylurea herbicide, and strategies for its removal have attracted increasing attention. Microbial degradation is considered the most acceptable dissipation method. In this study, we optimized the cultivation conditions (substrate concentration, pH, inoculum concentration, and temperature) of the chlorimuron-ethyl-degrading bacterium Rhodococcus sp. D310-1 using response surface methodology (RSM) to improve the biodegradation efficiency. A maximum biodegradation rate of 88.95 % was obtained. The Andrews model was used to describe the changes in the specific degradation rate as the substrate concentration increased. Chlorimuron-ethyl could be transformed with a maximum specific degradation rate (q max), half-saturation constant (K S), and inhibition constant (K i) of 0.4327 day(-1), 63.50045 mg L(-1), and 156.76666 mg L(-1), respectively. Eight biodegradation products (2-amino-4-chloro-6-methoxypyrimidine, ethyl 2-sulfamoyl benzoate, 2-sulfamoyl benzoic acid, o-benzoic sulfimide, 2-[[(4-chloro-6-methoxy-2-pyrimidinyl) carbamoyl] sulfamoyl] benzoic acid, ethyl 2-carbonyl sulfamoyl benzoate, ethyl 2-benzenesulfonyl isocyanate benzoate, and N,N-2(ethyl formate)benzene sulfonylurea) were identified, and three possible degradation pathways were proposed based on the results of high performance liquid chromatography HPLC, liquid chromatography tandem mass spectroscopy (LC-MS/MS), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analyses and the relevant literature. This systematic study is the first to examine the chlorimuron-ethyl degradation pathways of the genus Rhodococcus.

Abstract
In this study, the effects of cultivation conditions on the degradation of chlorimuron-ethyl by Stenotrophomonas maltophilia D310-3, which exhibits a high chlorimuron-ethyl-degrading capability, were investigated. To improve the biodegradation efficiency, the cultivation conditions were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM) based on Box-Behnken design (BBD). The maximum biodegradation rate (89.9%) was obtained at the optimal conditions (culture time, 6 d; substrate concentration, 50.21 mg L(-1); pH, 5.95; temperature, 30.15 °C). The Andrews model was used to describe the dynamic change regularity of the specific degradation rate as the substrate concentration increased, and the values of the maximum specific degradation rate (q(max)), half-saturation constant (K(S)) and inhibition constant (K(i)) were 78.87 d(-1), 9180.97 mg L(-1) and 0.28 mg L(-1), respectively. Eight degradation products were captured and identified by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometry, and three possible degradation pathways are proposed based on the results of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), LC-MS and FTIR analyses as well as results reported in relevant literature. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first systematic study of the degradation pathway of chlorimuron-ethyl by S. maltophilia D310-3. This study provides valuable information for further exploration of the microbial degradation of other sulfonylurea herbicides.

Abstract
A novel bacterial strain Klebsiella sp. Y1 was isolated from the soil of a constructed wetland, and it was identified based on the 16S rDNA sequence analysis. The co-metabolic degradation of nicosulfuron with glucose by Klebsiella sp. Y1 was investigated. The response surface methodology analysis indicated that the optimal pH and temperature were 7.0 and 35 °C, respectively, for the degradation of nicosulfuron. Under the optimal conditions, the degradation of nicosulfuron fitted Haldane kinetics model well. The removal of nicosulfuron was triggered by the acidification of glucose, which accelerated the hydrolysis of nicosulfuron. Then, the C-N bond of the sulfonylurea bridge was attacked and cleaved. Finally, the detected intermediate 2-amino-4,6-dimethoxypyrimidine was further biodegraded.

Abstract
A bacterial strain ZWS11 was isolated from sulfonylurea herbicide-contaminated farmland soil and identified as a potential nicosulfuron-degrading bacterium. Based on morphological and physicochemical characterization of the bacterium and phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA sequence, strain ZWS11 was identified as Alcaligenes faecalis. The effects of the initial concentration of nicosulfuron, inoculation volume, and medium pH on degradation of nicosulfuron were investigated. Strain ZWS11 could degrade 80.56% of the initial nicosulfuron supplemented at 500.0mg/L under the conditions of pH7.0, 180r/min and 30°C after incubation for 6days. Strain ZWS11 was also capable of degrading rimsulfuron, tribenuron-methyl and thifensulfuron-methyl. Four metabolites from biodegradation of nicosulfuron were identified, which were 2-aminosulfonyl-N, N-dimethylnicotinamide (M1), 4, 6-dihydroxypyrimidine (M2), 2-amino-4, 6-dimethoxypyrimidine (M3) and 2-(1-(4,6-dimethoxy-pyrimidin-2-yl)-ureido)-N,N-dimethyl-nicotinamide (M4). Among the metabolites detected, M2 was reported for the first time. Possible biodegradation pathways of nicosulfuron by strain ZWS11 were proposed. The degradation proceeded mainly via cleavage of the sulfonylurea bridge, O-dealkylation, and contraction of the sulfonylurea bridge by elimination of a sulfur dioxide group. The results provide valuable information for degradation of nicosulfuron in contaminated environments.

Abstract
Effects of rice husk gasification residues (RHGR) application on the fate of herbicides, butachlor and pyrazosulfuron-ethyl, in paddy water were investigated using micro paddy lysimeters (MPLs). The dissipation of both herbicides in paddy water was faster in the RHGR treated MPL than in the control MPL. The average concentrations of butachlor and pyrazosulfuron-ethyl in paddy water in the lysimeter treated with RHGR during 21 days were significantly reduced by 51% and 48%, respectively, as compared to those in the lysimeter without RHGR application. The half-lives (DT50) of butachlor in paddy water for control and treatment were 3.1 and 2.3 days respectively, and these values of pyrazosulfuron-ethyl were 3.0 and 2.2 days, respectively. Based on this study, RHGR application in rice paddy environment is an alternative method to reduce the concentration of herbicide in paddy field water and consequently to reduce potential pollution to aquatic environment.

Abstract
Sulfonylurea herbicides are widely used on a wide range of crops to control weeds. Chevalier® OnePass herbicide is a sulfonylurea herbicide intensively used on cereal crops in Algeria. No information is yet available about the biodegradation of this herbicide or about its effect on the bacterial community of the soil. In this study, we collected an untreated soil sample, and another sample was collected 1 month after treatment with the herbicide. Using a high-resolution melting DNA technique, we have shown that treatment with Chevalier® OnePass herbicide only slightly changed the composition of the whole bacterial community. Two hundred fifty-nine macroscopically different clones were isolated from the untreated and treated soil under both aerobic and microaerobic conditions. The strains were identified by sequencing a conserved fragment of the 16S rRNA gene. The phylogenetic trees constructed using the sequencing results confirmed that the bacterial populations were similar in the two soil samples. Species belonging to the Lysinibacillus, Bacillus, Pseudomonas, and Paenibacillus genera were the most abundant species found. Surprisingly, we found that among ten strains isolated from the treated soil, only six were resistant to the herbicide. Furthermore, bacterial overlay experiments showed that only one resistant strain (related to Stenotrophomonas maltophilia) allowed all the sensitive strains tested to grow in the presence of the herbicide. The other resistant strains allowed only certain sensitive strains to grow. On the basis of these results, we propose that there must be several biodegradation pathways for this sulfonylurea herbicide.

Abstract
By enrichment culturing of soil contaminated with metribuzin, a highly efficient metribuzin degrading bacterium, Bacillus sp. N1, was isolated. This strain grows using metribuzin at 5.0% (v/v) as the sole nitrogen source in a liquid medium. Optimal metribuzin degradation occurred at a temperature of 30ºC and at pH 7.0. With an initial concentration of 20 mg L(-1), the degradation rate was 73.5% in 120 h. If the initial concentrations were higher than 50 mg L(-1), the biodegradation rates decreased as the metribuzin concentrations increased. When the concentration was 100 mg L(-1), the degradation rate was only 45%. Degradation followed the pesticide degradation kinetic equation at initial concentrations between 5 mg L(-1) and 50 mg L(-1). When the metribuzin contaminated soil was mixed with strain N1 (with the concentration of metribuzin being 20 mg L(-1) and the inoculation rate of 10(11) g(-1) dry soil), the degradation rate of the metribuzin was 66.4% in 30 days, while the degradation rate of metribuzin was only 19.4% in the control soil without the strain N1. These results indicate that the strain N1 can significantly increase the degradation rate of metribuzin in contaminated soil.

Abstract
Owing to reported phytotoxicity of some sulfonylurea class of herbicides in number of sensitive crops and higher persistence in soil, present study was conducted to isolate and identify pyrazosulfuron-ethyl degrading fungi from soil of rice field. Penicillium chrysogenum and Aspergillus niger, were isolated and identified from rhizospere soil of rice field, as potent pyrazosulfuron-ethyl degrading fungi. Degradation of pyrazosulfuron-ethyl by P. chrysogenum and A. niger, yielded transformation products/metabolites which were identified and characterized by LC/MS/MS. The rate of dissipation of pyrazosulfuron-ethyl was found higher in soil of rice field and soil inoculated with P. chrysogenum. This showed important route of degradation of pyrazosulfuron-ethyl by microbes apart from chemical degradation.

Abstract
Simulated sunlight irradiation causing degradation of amidosulfuron, a pyrimidinylsulfonylurea herbicide, has been investigated in aqueous solution. The main degradation products were followed up by ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography with a UV detector (UHPLC-UV) and identified by combining ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS) and Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS). On the basis of the retrosynthetic analysis, the most identified degradation products were mainly due to the losses of methylsulfamic acid (CH₅NO₃S), sulfocarbamic acid (CH₃NO₅S), carbamic acid (CH₃NO₂), methyl(methylsulfonyl)sulfamic acid (C₂H₇NO₅S₂), N-methylmethanesulfonamide (C₂H₇NO₂S), and sulfonic acid (H₂SO₄) molecules. Accordingly, O and S-demethylation as well as hydroxylation processes were also observed. Sum formulas of the main degradation products were assigned, and a mechanical pathway is proposed.

Abstract
The behavior of butachlor and pyrazosulfuron-ethyl in paddy water was investigated using micro paddy lysimeters with prescribed hydrological conditions under ambient temperature in spring and summer for simulating two rice crop seasons. Although they were not significantly different, the dissipation of both herbicides in paddy water in the summer experiment was faster than in the spring experiment. The half-lives (DT(50)) in paddy water for spring and summer experiments were 3.2 and 2.5 days for butachlor, and 3.1 and 1.6 days for pyrazosulfuron-ethyl, respectively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pyrazosulfuron ethyl, a new rice herbicide belonging to the sulfonylurea group, has recently been registered in India for weed control in rice crops. Many field experiments revealed the bioefficacy of this herbicide; however, no information is available on the persistence of this herbicide in paddy soil under Indian tropical conditions. Therefore, a field experiment was undertaken to investigate the fate of pyrazosulfuron ethyl in soil and water of rice fields. Persistence studies were also carried out under laboratory conditions in sterile and non-sterile soil to evaluate the microbial contribution to degradation. RESULTS High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) of pyrazosulfuron ethyl gave a single sharp peak at 3.41 min. The instrument detection limit (IDL) for pyrazosulfuron ethyl by HPLC was 0.1 µg mL(-1) , with a sensitivity of 2 ng. The estimated method detection limit (EMDL) was 0.001 µg mL(-1) and 0.002 µg g(-1) for water and soil respectively. Two applications at an interval of 10 days gave good weed control. The herbicide residues dissipated faster in water than in soil. In the present study, with a field-soil pH of 8.2 and an organic matter content of 0.5%, the pyrazosulfuron ethyl residues dissipated with a half-life of 5.4 and 0.9 days in soil and water respectively. Dissipation followed first-order kinetics. Under laboratory conditions, degradation of pyrazosulfuron ethyl was faster in non-sterile soil (t(1/2) = 9.7 days) than in sterile soil (t(1/2) = 16.9 days). CONCLUSION Pyrazosulfuron ethyl is a short-lived molecule, and it dissipated rapidly in field soil and water. The faster degradation of pyrazosulfuron in non-sterile soil than in sterile soil indicated microbial degradation of this herbicide.

Abstract
Tribenuron methyl (TBM) is a member of the sulfonylurea herbicide family and is widely used in weed control. Due to its phytotoxicity to rotating-crops, concerns on TBM-pollution to soil have been raised. In this study, experimental results indicated that microbial activity played a key role in TBM removal from polluted soil. Twenty-six bacterial strains were isolated and their degradation of TBM was evaluated. Serratia sp. strain BW30 was selected and subjected to further investigation on its degradative mechanism. TBM degradation by strain BW30 was dependent on glucose that was converted into lactic or oxalic acids. HPLC-MS analysis revealed two end-products from TBM degradation, and they were identical to the products from TBM acidohydrolysis. Based on this observation, it is proposed that microbe-mediated acidohydrolysis of TBM was involved in TBM degradation in soil, and possible application of this observation in bioremediation of TBM-polluted soil is discussed.

Abstract
De-esterification is an important degradation or detoxification mechanism of sulfonylurea herbicide in microbes and plants. However, the biochemical and molecular mechanisms of sulfonylurea herbicide de-esterification are still unknown. In this study, a novel esterase gene, sulE, responsible for sulfonylurea herbicide de-esterification, was cloned from Hansschlegelia zhihuaiae S113. The gene contained an open reading frame of 1,194 bp, and a putative signal peptide at the N terminal was identified with a predicted cleavage site between Ala37 and Glu38, resulting in a 361-residue mature protein. SulE minus the signal peptide was synthesized in Escherichia coli BL21 and purified to homogeneity. SulE catalyzed the de-esterification of a variety of sulfonylurea herbicides that gave rise to the corresponding herbicidally inactive parent acid and exhibited the highest catalytic efficiency toward thifensulfuron-methyl. SulE was a dimer without the requirement of a cofactor. The activity of the enzyme was completely inhibited by Ag(+), Cd(2+), Zn(2+), methamidophos, and sodium dodecyl sulfate. A sulE-disrupted mutant strain, ΔsulE, was constructed by insertion mutation. ΔsulE lost the de-esterification ability and was more sensitive to the herbicides than the wild type of strain S113, suggesting that sulE played a vital role in the sulfonylurea herbicide resistance of the strain. The transfer of sulE into Saccharomyces cerevisiae BY4741 conferred on it the ability to de-esterify sulfonylurea herbicides and increased its resistance to the herbicides. This study has provided an excellent candidate for the mechanistic study of sulfonylurea herbicide metabolism and detoxification through de-esterification, construction of sulfonylurea herbicide-resistant transgenic crops, and bioremediation of sulfonylurea herbicide-contaminated environments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pyrazosulfuron-ethyl {ethyl 5-[(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-ylcarbamoyl)-sulfamoyl]-1-methylpyrazole-4-carboxylate} is a new rice herbicide belonging to the sulfonylurea group. This study reports the translocation of (14)C-pyrazosulfuron-ethyl to rice plants and its degradation in rice-planted and unplanted soil. RESULTS Pyrazosulfuron-ethyl did not show any appreciable translocation to rice shoots, as (14)C-activity translocated to the aerial portion never exceeded 1% of the initially applied (14)C-activity over a 25 day period. Results suggested that the dissipation of pyrazosulfuron-ethyl from soils followed first-order kinetics with a half-life of 5.5 and 6.9 days in rice-planted and unplanted soils respectively. HPLC analysis of the organic extract of soil samples showed the formation of three metabolites, namely ethyl 5-(aminosulfonyl)-1-methyl-1-H-pyrazole-4-carboxylate, 5-[({[(4,6-dimethoxy-2 pyrimidinyl)-amino]-carbonyl} amino)-sulfonyl]-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid and 2-amino-4,6-dimethoxy pyrimidine, in both rice-planted and unplanted soils. CONCLUSION The study indicates that pyrazosulfuron-ethyl was a short-lived compound in the soil and was degraded relatively faster in rice-planted soil than in unplanted soil. The herbicide did not show any appreciable translocation to rice plants.

Abstract
A bacterial strain S9-1capable of degrading sulfonylurea herbicide pyrazosulfuron-ethyl (PSE) was isolated from contaminated soil through the enrichment incubation method. Based on morphology, colony and cultural properties, physiological and biochemical characteristics, living-cell absorption spectra, internal photosynthetic membrane, and phylogenetics of its 16S rRNA gene sequence, S9-1was preliminarily identified as belonging to the genus Rhodopseudomonas, a group of photosynthetic bacteria (PSB). The effects of PSE concentration, pH, and temperature on biodegradation were examined. The degradation rate was found to decrease with increasing PSE concentration. Optimal growth pH and temperature were found to be 7.0 and 30°C, respectively. The strain was able to degrade 47.51% of PSE at a concentration of 100 mg ml-1after 7 days of incubation at 30°C and could tolerate 800 mg ml-1PSE. S9-1was also able to completely co-metabolically transform 100 mg ml-1PSE at 30°C, pH 7.0, and 7500 lux in 15 days. As the concentration of PSE increased, the degradation process took longer to complete. The fragment encoding acetolactate synthase (ALS) gene from S9-1was cloned and sequenced. Comparison of deduced amino acid sequences was implemented, and the conserved sites were analyzed. To our knowledge, this is the first report of PSB in PSE biodegradation. These results highlight the potential of this bacterium as a detoxifying agent for use with PSE-contaminated soil and wastewater.

Abstract
The diphenyl ether herbicide lactofen is commonly used to control broadleaf weeds. Once released into the environment, this herbicide is subject to microbial reactions. This study describes the biotransformation of lactofen by Brevundimonas sp. LY-2 isolated from enrichment cultures inoculated with soil sample. This strain degraded about 80% of 50 mg L(-1) lactofen in 5 days of incubation in flasks. The metabolic behaviors of the herbicide in the media are described. The results show a transformation pathway of lactofen by the bacterium leading to the formation of 1-(carboxy)ethyl-5-(2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)-2-nitrobenzoate and ethanol. An esterase, which could cleave the right ester bond of the alkanoic side chain of lactofen, was purified 113.3-fold to homogeneity with 6.83% recovery. The current results suggested that Brevundimonas sp. LY-2 degraded lactofen via the ester bond cleavage catalyzed by esterase.

Abstract
Pyrazosulfuron-ethyl (PY) is a sulfonylurea herbicide developed by DuPont which has been widely used for weed control in cereals. The determination of PY binding affinity and binding site in human serum albumin (HSA) by spectroscopic methods is the subject of this work. From the fluorescence emission, circular dichroism and three-dimensional fluorescence results, the interaction of PY with HSA caused secondary structure changes in the protein. Fluorescence data demonstrated that the quenching of HSA fluorescence by PY was the result of the formation of HSA-PY complex at 1:1 molar ratio, a static mechanism was confirmed to lead to the fluorescence quenching. Hydrophobic probe 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid (ANS) displacement results show that hydrophobic patches are the major sites for PY binding on HSA. The thermodynamic parameters DeltaH degrees and DeltaS degrees were calculated to be -36.32 kJ mol(-1) and -35.91 J mol(-1)K(-1), which illustrated van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds interactions were the dominant intermolecular force in stabilizing the complex. Also, site marker competitive experiments showed that the binding of PY to HSA took place primarily in subdomain IIA (Sudlow's site I). What presented in this paper binding research enriches our knowledge of the interaction between sulfonylurea herbicides and the physiologically important protein HSA.
