THE POWER OF SOIL! THE BREAKDOWN OF POLLUTANTS BY SOIL MICROORGANISMS

Le résumé fourni par la source

This presentation will focus on how microorganisms break down and remove herbicide pollutants in soils. It will explore the importance of the biological processes and mechanisms in soil for the transformation of synthetic chemicals. Discussion will draw from work in agricultural soils and research and explore how we may or may not apply that to urban soil settings. I will also discuss how bacteria have rapidly evolved to degrade novel chemicals added to soils systems by human activity.
