| Research Abstract |
Environmental bacteria able to degrade various recalcitrant and xenobiotic compounds play important roles in the removal of organic pollutants. To know the survival and proliferation strategies of such bacteria in their native niche, the genetic loci very important in the survival and specifically induced in the soil environment were identified at the genomic levels using two phylogentically distant strains. Metagenomic analysis was also conducted to clarify the mode how the bacterial population in the soil responded to the exposure of organic pollutants.
