Abstract
The use of probiotics in shrimp farms has expanded as an alternative to antibiotics, improving shrimp health, growth, disease control and water quality. However, the efficacy of probiotics in intensive systems using biofloc remains uncertain. This study investigated bioremediation and biocontrol of commercial probiotics using biofloc, analysing water quality and bacterial groups influencing shrimp performance. Thirteen microbial colonies were observed in the biofloc samples, and their evolutionary history was inferred using the neighbour-joining method. Analysis using MEGA6 software revealed 99.6% similarity between colony 1P1 and Virgibacillus sp. and 99.8% similarity between colony 2P2 and Bacillus kochii. The study analysed the biochemical and amino acid content of shrimp cultured using biofloc technology for 85 days. The study found that biofloc-cultured L. Vannamei flesh had higher levels of moisture (31%), ash (15.2%), protein (34%) and lipid (12.6%). No seasonal variations were observed between biofloc samples in winter and summer seasons. Protein levels were found to be appropriate for shrimp growth in both ex situ and in situ biofloc systems. The average growth rate (kg/m2) of biofloc-cultured shrimp was significantly greater than in normal pond shrimp in both samples. The feed conversion ratio in the biofloc tank was lower than in the usual pond-cultured shrimp, possibly due to lower growth rate, lower feeding frequency (2 times per day) and higher density. The growth of L. vannamei shrimp is influenced by stocking density, with higher stocking density affecting the average weight. The study also examined the growth biochemical and amino acid content of shrimp cultured using biofloc technology.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 468:133562.

Abstract
This study reports the strain Aspergillus flavus A5P1 (A5P1), which is with the capable of degrading the azo dye reactive orange 16 (RO16). The mechanism of RO16 degradation by A5P1 was elucidated through genomic analysis, enzymatic analysis, degradation pathway analysis and oxidative stress analysis. Strain A5P1 exhibited aerobic degradation of RO16, with optimal degradation at an initial pH of 3.0. Genomic analysis indicates that strain A5P1 possesses the potential for acid tolerance and degradation of azo dye. Enzymatic analysis, combined with degradation product analysis, demonstrated that extracellular laccase, intracellular lignin peroxidase, and intracellular quinone reductase were likely key enzymes in the RO16 degradation process. Oxidative stress analysis revealed that cell stress responses may participate in the RO16 biotransformation process. The results indicated that the biotransformation of RO16 may involves biological processes such as transmembrane transport of RO16, cometabolism of the strain with RO16, and cell stress responses. These findings shed light on the biodegradation of RO16 by A5P1, indicating A5P1's potential for environmental remediation.

Abstract
Microbial degradation of dyes is vital to understanding the fate of dyes in the environment. In this study, a fungal strain A-3 and a bacterial strain L-6, which were identified as Aspergillus fumigatus and Pseudomonas fluorescens, respectively, had been proven to efficiently degrade crystal violet (CV) dye. The decolorization of CV dye by fungal and bacterial cocultivation was investigated. The results showed that the decolorization rate of cocultures was better than monoculture (P. fluorescens in L-6 (PF), and that of A. fumigatus A-3 (AF)). Furthermore, enzymatic analysis further revealed that Lac, MnP, Lip, and NADH-DCIP reductases were involved in the biodegradation of CV dyes. UV-visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) were used to examine the degradation products. GC-MS analysis showed the presence of 4-(dimethylamino) benzophenone, 3-dimethylaminophenol, benzyl alcohol, and benzaldehyde, indicating that CV was degraded into simpler compounds. The phytotoxicity tests revealed that CV degradation products were less toxic than the parent compounds, indicating that the cocultures detoxified CV dyes. As a result, the cocultures are likely to have a wide range of applications in the bioremediation of CV dyes.

Nitrogen (N) "supplementation, slow release, and retention" strategy improves N use efficiency via the synergistic effect of biochar, nitrogen-fixing bacteria, and dicyandiamide. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 908:168518. [PMID: 37967639 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.168518] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2023] [Revised: 11/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/10/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023]
Abstract
Irrational nitrogen (N) fertilizer management and application practices have led to a range of ecological and environmental problems that seriously threaten food security. In this study, an effective N fertilizer management strategy was established for improving N fertilizer utilization efficiency (NUE). Biochar, N2-fixing bacteria (Enterobacter cloacae), and a nitrification inhibitor (dicyandiamide, DCD) were simultaneously added to the soil during maize cultivation. The goal was to increase soil ammonium nitrogen content and NUE by regulating the relative abundance, enzyme activity, and functional gene expression of N conversion-related soil microbes. Biochar combined with E. cloacae and DCD significantly increased soil N content, and the NUE reached 46.69 %. The relative abundance of Burkholderia and Bradyrhizobium and the activity of nitrogenase increased significantly during biological N2 fixation. Further, the abundance of the nifH gene was significantly up-regulated. The relative abundance of Sphingomonas, Pseudomonas, Nitrospira, and Castellaniella and the activities of ammonia monooxygenase and nitrate reductase decreased significantly during nitrification and denitrification. Moreover, the abundance of the genes amoA and narG was significantly down-regulated. Correlation analyses showed that the increase in soil N2 fixation and the suppression of nitrification and denitrification reactions were the key contributors to the increase in soil N content and NUE. Biochar combined with E. cloacae and DCD synergistically enabled the supplementation, slow release, and retention of N, thus providing adequate N for maize growth. Thus, the combination of biochar, E. cloacae, and DCD is effective for mitigating the irrational application of N fertilizers and reducing N pollution.

Abstract
This study aims to investigate the positive effects of the combined use of Enterobacter cloacae and biochar on improving nitrogen (N) utilization. The greenhouse pots experimental results showed the synergy of biochar and E. cloacae increased soil total N content and plant N uptake by 33.54% and 15.1%, respectively. Soil nitrogenase (NIT) activity increased by 253.02%. Ammonia monooxygenase (AMO) and nitrate reductase (NR) activity associated with nitrification and denitrification decreased by 10.94% and 29.09%, respectively. The relative abundance of N fixing microorganisms like Burkholderia and Bradyrhizobium significantly increased. Sphingomonas and Ottowia, two bacteria involved in the nitrification and denitrification processes, were found to be in lower numbers. The E. cloacae's ability to fix N2 and promote the growth of plants allow the retention of N in soil and make more N available for plant development. Biochar served as a reservoir of N for plants by adsorbing N from the soil and providing a shelter for E. cloacae. Thus, biochar and E. cloacae form a synergy for the management of agricultural N and the mitigation of negative impacts of pollution caused by excessive use of N fertilizer.

Abstract
Accidents involving diesel oil spills are prevalent in sea- and coastal regions. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) can be adsorbed in soil and constitute a persistent contaminant due to their poor water solubility and complex breakdown. PAHs pollution is a pervasive environmental concern that poses serious risks to human life and ecosystems. Thus, it is the need of the hour to degrade and decontaminate the toxic pollutant to save the environment. Among all the available techniques, microbial degradation of the PAHs is proving to be greatly beneficial and effective. Bioremediation overcomes the drawbacks of most physicochemical procedures by eliminating numerous organic pollutants at a lower cost in ambient circumstances and has therefore become a prominent remedial option for pollutant removal, including PAHs. In the present study, we have studied the degradation of Low molecular Weight and High Molecular Weight PAH in combination by bacterial strains isolated from a marine environment. Optimum pH, temperature, carbon, and nitrogen sources, NaCl concentrations were found for efficient degradation using the isolated bacterial strains. At 250 mg/L concentration of the PAH mixture an 89.5% degradation was observed. Vibrio algiolytcus strains were found to be potent halotolerant bacteria to degrade complex PAH into less toxic simple molecules. GC-MS and FTIR data were used to probe the pathway of degradation of PAH.

Abstract
The overuse of N fertilizers has caused serious environmental problems (e.g., soil acidification, excessive N2O in the air, and groundwater contamination) and poses a serious threat to human health. Improving N fertilizer utilization efficiency and plant uptake is an alternative for N fertilizers overuses. Enterobacter cloacae is an opportunistic pathogen, also used as plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), has been widely presented in the fields of bioremediation and bioprotection. Here we developed a new N fixation-release model by combining biochar with E. cloacae. The efficiency of the model was evaluated using a greenhouse pot experiment with maize (Zea mays L.) as the test crop. The results showed that biochar combined with E. cloacae significantly increased the N content. The application of biochar combined with E. cloacae increased total N in soil by 33% compared with that of N fertilizers application. The N-uptake and utilization efficiency (NUE) in plant was increased 17.03% and 14.18%, respectively. The activities of urease, dehydrogenase and fluorescein diacetate hydrolase (FDA) was improved, the catalase (CAT) activity decreased. Analysis of the microbial community diversity revealed the abundance of Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Firmicutes, and Gemmatimonadetes were significantly improved. The mechanism under the model is that E. cloacae acted as N-fixation by capturing N2 from air. Biochar served as carrier, supporting better living environment for E. cloacae, also as adsorbent adsorbing N from fertilizer and from fixed N by E. cloacae, the adsorption in turn slower the N release. Altogether, the model promotes N utilization by plants, improves the soil environment, and reduces N pollution.

Abstract
In the present scenario, the uncontrolled and irrational use of pesticides is affecting the environment, agriculture and livelihood worldwide. The excessive application of pesticides for better production of crops and to maintain sufficient food production is leading to cause many serious environmental issues such as soil pollution, water pollution and also affecting the food chain. The efficient management of pesticide use and remediation of pesticide-contaminated soil is one of the most significant challenges to overcome. The efficiency of the current methods of biodegradation of pesticides using different microbes and enzymes depends on the various physical and chemical conditions of the soil and they have certain limitations. Hence, a novel strategy is the need of the hour to safeguard the ecosystem from the serious environmental hazard. In recent years, the application of nanomaterials has drawn attention in many areas due to their unique properties of small size and increased surface area. Nanotechnology is considered to be a promising and effective technology in various bioremediation processes and provides many significant benefits for improving the environmental technologies using nanomaterials with efficient performance. The present article focuses on and discusses the role, application and importance of nano-bioremediation of pesticides and toxic pollutants to explore the potential of nanomaterials in the bioremediation of hazardous compounds from the environment.

Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and heavy metals are typical pollutants in the non-ferrous metal smelting industry. The combination of biodegradation and biomineralization has great development potential for co-contamination removal as an environmentally friendly method. Pyrene (Pyr) and cadmium (Cd) were regarded as model pollutants of co-contamination in this study. A bifunctional bacterial community named Ycp was screened from a non-ferrous smelting slag field soil. The 16S rRNA gene high throughput sequencing analysis showed that Enterobacter was the dominant genus (99.1%). Ycp had adaptability under a wide range of environmental conditions (pH 3-9, salinity 0-10 g L-1 NaCl, Pyr concentration 0-50 mg L-1, Cd concentration 0-100 mg L-1), and the removal rate of Pyr and Cd reached 41.8%-76.9%, 82.8%-98.8%, respectively. It was found that compound carbon sources had promoting effect on the removal of Pyr and Cd, with the maximum removal rate of 88.3% and 98.0%. According to the degradation products of Pyr by LC-MS analysis and the mineralized products of Cd2+ by XRD and SEM-EDS analysis, the mechanism of Ycp for co-contamination remediation was: Ycp biodegraded Pyr through salicylic acid and phthalic acid metabolic pathways, and biomineralized Cd2+ into CdCO3 through microbially induced carbonate precipitation. This study provided a basis for microbial remediation of co-contamination.

Biotransformation is the most effective and useful metabolic process to degrade xenobiotic compounds. Microorganisms have an exceptional ability due to particular genes, enzymes, and degradative mechanisms. Microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi have unique properties that enable them to partially or completely metabolize the xenobiotic substances in various ecosystems.There are many cutting-edge approaches available to understand the molecular mechanism of degradative processes and pathways to decontaminate or change the core structure of xenobiotics in nature. These methods examine microorganisms, their metabolic machinery, novel proteins, and catabolic genes. This article addresses recent advances and current trends to characterize the catabolic genes, enzymes and the techniques involved in combating the threat of xenobiotic compounds using an eco-friendly approach.

Abstract
Rhizosphere Streptomyces is one of the important types of rhizosphere microorganisms that plays an important role in promoting plant growth and controlling plant diseases to maintain agricultural ecosystem balance and green ecological agriculture development as beneficial bacteria. Microbial co-culture simulates the complex biocommunity in nature, which has more advantages than the monoculture with a synergistic effect. As the key signal mediums of microorganisms, plants, and their interactions, microbial metabolites are of great significance in revealing their functional mechanism. In this study, two potential plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria, Streptomyces albireticuli MDJK11, and Streptomyces alboflavus MDJK44, were selected to explore the effects of co-culture and monoculture on plant growth promotion and disease prevention, and the metabolic material basis was analyzed by metabonomics. Results showed that Streptomyces MDJK11, MDJK44 monoculture, and co-culture condition all showed good growth promoting and antimicrobial effects. Moreover, as compared to the monoculture, the co-culture showed the advantage of a synergistic enhancement effect. LC-MS-based metabonomics analysis showed the metabolic material bases of Streptomyces for plant growth promotion and disease prevention were mainly plant hormone and antibiotics and the co-culture condition could significantly stimulate the production of plant hormone promoters and macrolide, cyclic peptide, and aminoglycoside antibiotics. The study proved that the co-cultures of S. albireticuli MDJK11 and S. alboflavus MDJK44 have great potential in crop growth promotion and disease prevention.
