Anaerobic degradation of 4-methylbenzoate by a newly isolated denitrifying bacterium, strain pMbN1.

Sven Lahme et al.

Applied and environmental microbiology, 78(5), 1606-1610 (2011-12-20)

A novel alphaproteobacterium isolated from freshwater sediments, strain pMbN1, degrades 4-methylbenzoate to CO(2) under nitrate-reducing conditions. While strain pMbN1 utilizes several benzoate derivatives and other polar aromatic compounds, it cannot degrade p-xylene or other hydrocarbons. Based on 16S rRNA gene

Biotransformation of p-toluic acid in anoxic estuarine sediments under a CO2 or N2/H2 atmosphere.

C E Kuo et al.

Chemosphere, 45(6-7), 835-842 (2001-11-07)

The composition of the headspace gas affected the growth dynamics of microbial populations and the biotransformation pattern of p-toluic acid in anoxic estuarine sediments. Under CO2 atmosphere, p-toluic acid was transformed by the sediment microorganisms without a lag period, while

Simultaneous degradation of chloro- and methyl-substituted aromatic compounds: competition between Pseudomonas strains using the ortho and meta pathway or the ortho pathway exclusively.

A C Franck-Mokross et al.

Applied microbiology and biotechnology, 50(2), 233-240 (1998-12-05)

Pseudomonas sp. D7-4 and Pseudomonas sp. B13 FR1(pFRC20P) degraded mixtures of chloro- and methyl-substituted benzoates exclusively via an extended ortho pathway, whereas in Pseudomonas putida WR 201 both ortho and meta fission were induced by mixtures of 3-chloro- and 3-methylbenzoate
