Characterization of Acetamiprid Biodegradation by the Microbial Consortium ACE-3 Enriched From Contaminated Soil.

ABSTRACT: Microbial consortia are ubiquitous in nature and exhibit several attractive features such as sophisticated metabolic capabilities and strong environmental robustness. This study aimed to decipher the metabolic and ecological characteristics of synergistic interactions in acetamiprid-degrading consortia, suggesting an optimal scheme for bioremediation of organic pollutants. The microbial consortium ACE-3 with excellent acetamiprid-degrading ability was enriched from the soil of an acetamiprid-contaminated site and characterized using high-throughput sequencing (HTS). Consortium ACE-3 was able to completely degrade 50 mg⋅L^-1 acetamiprid in 144 h, and was metabolically active at a wide range of pH values (6.0-8.0) and temperatures (20-42°C). Furthermore, plausible metabolic routes
